Clinton Kane

Clinton Kane brings a set anchored in confessional pop, drifting between tender folk and melodic rock. On 14 May 2026 at Manchester Academy in Manchester, he lines up songs that tap into family ties, faith and breakups, carried by a voice that swells from a hush to a clear, ringing chorus. The live frame stays close to the bone: guitar, piano, and space for dynamics, shifting from solo moments to a tight band when the songs call for extra weight without clutter. Chicken Tendies and I Guess I’m in Love rub shoulders with cuts from his debut album Maybe Someday It’ll All Be OK and the EP this is what it feels like, stitched together by unfussy storytelling and those ascending vocal lines he likes to climb and let fall. Born in Oslo to a Filipino-European family and raised between Australia, the UK and the US, Kane funnels that in‑between feeling into writing that’s direct and a bit raw at the edges. On stage, it reads simply and honestly: intimate verses, open choruses, melodies that land without fuss and linger after the last chord.
