Cautious Clay

Cautious Clay is the artist alias of Cleveland-born, New York-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Josh Karpeh. Drawing from R&B, hip hop, and leftfield indie pop, Cautious Clay has built a reputation for poetic and emotionally honest music defined by his sophisticated songwriting, soulful singing, and cinematic sound.  HIs debut album Deadpan Love is a culmination of this growth. If Karpeh’s previous EPs showed the artist experimenting with different singing, songwriting, and production forms, then Deadpan Love sees him confidently owning his sound, expressing his ideas in his most assured and direct way yet.
