Jack Van Cleaf

Encinitas, California

California-reared artist Jack Van Cleaf writes determined and delicate songs with poetic slant and confessional warmth. In his songs folk imagination dresses in cinematic production, evoking the spacious and sparse verses of Nathaniel Rateliff and Gregory Alan Isakov. His music also echoes his heroes: a directness borrowed from Kris Kristofferson and lucid spirituality reminiscent of Cohen.
