Artist History
In 1993 Jamen Brooks, Mitch Glende, and Brant Paulsen began to write and then record Clover's first album, Tanglewood. By the time it was recorded--a year later--Clover decided it might be time to play somewhere besides their basement. It didn't take long for the band to gain a cult-like following, despite their reluctance to seek the limelight. Even though they were technically a fledgling group, their folksy-rocking sound was so well developed that their fan base more than doubled at every show. The smaller venues missed their chance to feature the trio within a year. By the time their second album, Sun, was released in the summer of 1995 they were consistently selling out their own headlining shows in clubs that normally turn their noses up to anything but national acts. With Sun on the market their radio play also boomed. Between the two albums the group produced four radio singles that all reached either top five or number one most requested status on X96 (KXRK). |

Press Reviews
Clover's hungry fans will be well fed with New Grand Silver, the long-awaited follow-up to Sun. In the new album Clover follows their natural progression to an even fuller sound by combining their use of raw emotion with an energy so tightly strung the effect is mesmerizing. Part of this full sound stems from the addition of Pat Young on rhythm guitar. However, even with the addition of Pat and the musical progression, Clover's fans will no doubt recognize the band's unique sound on the new album. |
