Clay Camero has made over 14 albums to date, ranging from experimental folk, psychedelic blues to industrial trip hop. This album artfully unites all of Clay's personae and takes us back to her folktronic roots, back to the village Rolling Stone magazine nicknamed "The Village of the Damned," a truly cursed place just off Route 13, where Clay grew up. BioPsychoSocial begins with found audio from a deceased pack-rat's refuse pile. Gritty samples drop into a beat as Clay begins her story: "I'm from a broken town, grew up eating lead paint ... playing dead in the cemetery, I had a hard time believing life could be anything but extraordinary." She sings of wanting to disappear all the while craving intimacy.  In the song Late September, she embodies the same longing, and in 50/50 Love, she dances us into a bowie-esque fever dream just to tell us again, all she wants is love. In Isolation, an epic piano ballad about the fall of mankind, Camero contends with the past, mourning every deceit and abuse of power with the craft of a survivor. Soaked with hundreds of layers of guitars, alto & tenor sax, synths, reed organs, vocals, field recordings, violins, samples and beats, this album captures Clay's past and present life, living on a precipice through drought and hundred year floods, singing to the river, mourning friends and family, feeling the past creeping in, an uninvited ghost off Rt 13. Written, recorded & produced by Camero using solar power on her land during the pandemic. More layers added at Freewill, Maine. Mixed by Clay Camero & Dan Whatley. Mastered by Caleb Mulkerin. Cover art by Paul Miller Gamble. Available as a download and as an LP -- the LP is transluscent tangerine vinyl, featuring stunning artwork collab between Clay Camero and Paul Miller Gamble. Special edition of 400 from Deep Grooves. SR 14. Price includes shipping.
