THUNDERCLAP!
11.00
THUNDERCLAP! is a singer/songwriter/performer originally from Niagara Falls, ON. His music’s been played on radio stations around the globe, and he’s performed live all over North America and Europe.
These days, a car and a guitar keeps him light and fancy free - THUNDERCLAP is a man alone and a band that can't break up! He believes that the intimate dynamics of the voice can be lost in band situations and the bravery needed to take a stage alone heightens the vulnerability of the performer, creating a deeper emotional rapport with the audience. THUNDERCLAP performs on the streets regularly, titillating audiences with his unique style as a "guerilla folk poet”.
THUNDERCLAP’s performance style was honed as a practicing method actor. His approach is honesty without a preconceived outcome, a pinch of poetic justice, a grand gesture or two and voila! One hell of a strange, operatic minstrel that will leave you scratching your head and tapping your toes.
