For nearly twenty years, Clementwine has shifted and reshaped itself, always built around the songwriting voice of Andrew Jakober, a musician whose obsession has remained constant: the song itself. Over decades of writing and performing, he has brought hundreds of songs to life. Sometimes alone, sometimes with collaborators, always finding new ways in. Songs take the shape they need, whether on stage, in a living room, or in the studio.
Across that time, he has honed his craft through musical experiences anywhere he can find them. From playing basement shows as a teenager to nationwide tours as a member of Fueled By Ramen’s Forgive Durden, he has performed at festivals like Bumbershoot and South By So What, in iconic venues like
The Troubadour and Bottom of the Hill, and shared stages with a range of artists, always absorbing performance, arrangement, and songcraft.
Influenced by the harmony-driven bands of the 60s and 70s and singer-songwriters like Aimee Mann and Elliott Smith, as well as the punk and pop-punk scenes that shaped his early years, the result is music that is both intimate and expansive, made for listeners
who value depth and honesty above all.
Now, the songs are being shared more freely than ever. Whether rough and refined, the refrain remains the same:
The song is the thing.
