The Clientele are a London-based band with Alasdair MacLean on vocals and guitar, Mark Keen on drums, James Hornsey on bass and Mel Draisey on Keys and Violin.
MacLean and Hornsey began collaborating musically while still in school, after MacLean saw that Hornsey had written the name of the band Felt on his pencil case. The band formed in 1991, with the current lineup along with Innes Phillips, who shared singing and songwriting duties with MacLean.

CDmG Evening came to us just like a song DmG A tall geometry of lawns G7C | F | A sense that you are still a stranger CDmG But we were bold to fade away like light DmG Looking sideways into light G7C | F | There is no reason we should stay here.

Csus4Dm* And I know you are listening to the song GDmC | F | Late in the still room with your lover Csus4Dm* And I see that move above the edge of speech GDmC | F | As we flicker like a screen, and we are gone
Once a spell of grace came over me And I walked on through empty streets Red brick sweatshirts and the dresses Inside everything I heard a voice Mechanical beyond itself Like the sentence of a dreamer
----------------
And I know you are listening to the song Late in the still room with your lover And I see that move above the edge of speech Out here beyond your reach, I'm singing on.
End on C
