The Clause

1 festival played →

Birmingham indie-rock four-piece — sharp-dressed, hook-first guitar songs with a swagger borrowed from the Midlands bands before them.

The Clause are an indie rock band from Birmingham, England, working in the guitar-pop tradition that runs through the Midlands and the north of England — clean, treble-forward riffs, direct verse-chorus structures and vocals delivered with a noticeable local accent. The group built its following the conventional way for British guitar bands, releasing a run of standalone singles and playing small venues and support slots around the UK before headlining larger rooms. Their reference points are audible: Britpop-era songwriting and the sharper end of 2000s indie, presented with matching suits and a deliberate attention to image.
