Dropping Next Week: Westward by Darren Roy Clarke


Dropping next week: We’re excited to help bring you the second single from Darren Roy Clarke’s upcoming debut album Dirty Face and a Broken Screen. “Westward” features Melissa Payne and Travis Good of The Sadies.

Singer, songwriter, guitarist Darren Roy Clarke writes songs that map the highways of his heart. Blending delicate roots, confessional country, and heartbreak folk, his music reveals a road-worn journey of the soul. Darren spins introspective vignettes in his distinctive tenor voice; accompanying himself with expressive, exploratory guitar that is as integral to these tales as his lyrics.

Hailing from the cozy, artsy hamlet of Warkwarth, Darren has been gaining recognition as a “musician’s musician,” garnering attention and sharing stages with a host of Canadian songwriters and performers.

Around the Fire is excited to be handling the promotion and public relations for Darren and his upcoming debut album Dirty Face and a Broken Screen. We’re equally excited to be working on producing the video for his second single, “Westward.”

Look for both the video and the single next Friday, February 2, 2024.
