Philip Clemo’s seventh studio album, Through the Wave of Blue, is a deeply personal journey, born from his response to profound adversity as his youngest daughter fought a serious illness. The album lays bare the raw intensity of fear, confusion, and turmoil, eventually finding resolution in the fragile yet radiant joy of her recovery. Clemo has described the creation of this album as a lifeline, a means of processing and transforming his emotional journey.

From the haunting depths of Stalker and intensity of Maze to the serene Rest and celebratory Dawn, Through the Wave of Blue offers an immersive experience that engages both viscerally and emotionally. Each composition has its own sonic identity, inviting listeners to delve deep into the intricate dialogues and textures that unfold. Clemo blends complex drones & atmospherics with brass, woodwind, strings, guitar, piano, electronics and hypnotic rhythms to create mesmerising soundscapes that captivate the senses.

To accompany the album, Clemo is creating a series of short films for individual tracks, with the first, Maze, set to premiere on January 3, 2025.

The album can be purchased on Philip Clemo’s Bandcamp page and through record shops and online.
