"…poetic lyricism is matched to a voice capable of swooping up into the heavens." - Clash


For fans of: Thom Yorke, Fleet Foxes, Iron & Wine

Adam Cleaver has released the title track and second single from his forthcoming EP Man Or Beast. It's available to buy digitally on iTunes.

A captivating alternative folk song that captures Adam's personal journey through his twenties, the video for the single premiered on TMRW Magazine's website, who described it as "uplifting and anthemic". You can watch it now via Adam's YouTube channel.


You can also stream the single on SoundCloud.


Man Or Beast is very personal for Cleaver. The single is about making big decisions and the drastic changes they may bring but Adam is all about the bigger picture and ultimately that’s the message of the single - something everyone can relate to at any point in their life. Musically, Adam’s influences range from Fleet Foxes to Iron & Wine, however, on the EP he hones these influences with a modern edge think Fleet Foxes meets Hozier but with Adam’s signature sweet, beguiling vocals.

Adam Cleaver worked with Matt Harris (HAWK) on Man or Beast creating a beautiful, organic sound prevalent throughout the EP. Adam has already received support from BBC 6Music’s Lauren Laverne who featured Adam’s The Salt Mine as her ‘Headphones Moment’ as well as playing the track multiple times on her show. The Salt Mine has also been featured on ClashAmazing Radio and John Kennedy’s XFM show but with this forthcoming EP, Adam is raising the stakes and is ready to show us what he’s really made of.

The video for single The Salt Mine premiered on Clash Magazine's website, and you can watch it now on YouTube and download it for free via SoundCloud.

Single Man or Beast is out now via Veta Records and available to buy digitally on iTunes. It's taken from the EP of the same name released September 18th and available to pre-order on iTunes.
