Adam Cleaver’s latest single ‘Narrow Spines’ out now!



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


"...uplifting and anthemic..." - TMRW Magazine


For fans of: RY X, Dry The River, Frightened Rabbit, Ben Howard

Adam Cleaver's latest single Narrow Spines - out now via Veta Records - is an eerie glimpse into Adam’s soul as he explores anguish and fragility. You can download Narrow Spines for free via Adam's Soundcloud page now.

The video recently premiered on Gigslutz and you can also watch it via Adam Cleaver’s YouTube channel now.


“Narrow Spines is about weakness,” explains Adam. “When someone is so trapped in their own grief they aren’t able to comprehend the people around them”. The song has a much broader intensity to the sound than on his previous single Man or Beast - Narrow Spines embraces a much larger sound. However, the themes remain close to Adam’s heart as he uses his music to express raw, personal emotions which are also portrayed in the video.

You can also stream the track via Adam Cleaver’s Soundcloud page now.


Adam’s incredible voice paired with post-rock influenced guitars and echoing drums is a beautiful and captivating combination. His sound is not dissimilar to acts like Frightened Rabbit and Dry The River but also draws comparisons to Ben Howard and Death Cab For Cutie. This single shows another side to Adam, an intriguing side that feels like a progression from his previous singles.

Adam’s previous supporters include BBC 6Music’s Lauren Laverne, Clash, Artrocker and Radio X’s John Kennedy. Working again with producer Matt Harris (HAWK), Narrow Spines demonstrates another side to Adam’s songwriting in advance of a new EP due later this year.

Narrow Spines is out now via Veta Records and is available to download for free via
Adam's Soundcloud page now.
