Mel and The Clientele on tour
In her spare time Mel Draisey (above) is an assistant in our creative department. In real life, she’s currently on tour in the US with her band the Clientele. New album God Save the Clientele now available. 5 star review on Amazon says: "The music also benefits from the beautiful voice and piano of new member Mel Draisey".

I’m now in LA, we did a radio session for KCRW yesterday and had our (nearly) sold out gig at the LA Knitting Factory last night recorded as it’s also going to be on a radio station.
Off to small town Visalia tonight, had a great time there last time, so different to tomorrow night though which is going to be at San Francisco’sGreat American Music Hall. Apparently it’s sold out which is great news for us!
Have the Portland gig in a few days. I think half the (Wieden + Kennedy Portland) office out there may be coming, and I think Eric from over there is going to film the whole gig. Not too many gins for me then…..
Well, looking forward to seeing you all soon!
