Episode notes

In Part 2 of Episode 9 of The Clientele Podcast, Robin Allender talks to multi-instrumentalist Mel Draisey. Following a hopeful MySpace message back in 2006, Mel was asked to join The Clientele and immediately embarked on a US tour which culminated in the recording of the God Save The Clientele album in Nashville. She also appears on, and wrote arrangements for, Bonfire on the Heath – adding vocals, piano, violin, drones and much more. Her contributions, particularly her beautiful voice, are really key elements of the band's sound during that period.

Mel also appears on the (brilliant) EP That Night, A Forest Grew and the mini-album Minotaur.
