Immersed in music for most of his life, Clive has won a variety of international accolades over the years. He gained a first-class honours degree in composition and guitar from Trinity College, London and was also named Essex Young Musician of the Year.

Local hero Tom Doughty, is no stranger to the international stage himself, and is shortly to release his third album. He performs regularly throughout the UK in addition to various stints abroad.

His admirers include the great American acoustic guitarist Woody Mann who describes Tom’s playing and vocal style as “coming from that natural place great music comes from – personal expression, honest and right from the heart. The music just flows.”
