Claude Munson

Munson was born in Hong Kong and raised in Halifax before moving to Ottawa, where he took up guitar and songwriting at an early age. His smoky tenor timbres and intrepid sensitivity facilitate a deeply introspective and emotionally driven performance that sends a hush of silence washing over the audience. A crystalline atmosphere is developed through sunny riffs while his distinct voice soars over ambient folk-pop textures and storybook instrumentation. Claude conveys a vivid, mysterious vibrancy about his art that leaves it standing on the precipice of both folk and electronic movements.
