George Clements is a New England based guitarist and singer/songwriter steeped in American folk music traditions.  In 2014 he began touring with the modern acoustic group, The Lonely Heartstring Band, releasing two albums on Rounder Records, Deep Waters (2014) and Smoke & Ashes (2017).  The group traveled and performed all over the US and Canada as well as Scotland, New Zealand, Germany and Switzerland. They were the recipient of the 2014 IBMA momentum award and played the stages of Grey Fox Festival, Rockygrass, Red Wing Roots and many others. In the fall of 2019, after the group decided to go on an indefinite hiatus, George became involved with an off-Broadway show called, The Simon & Garfunkel Story, playing Paul Simon. He is currently living on the North Shore of Massachusetts, working on a new project with his twin brother Charles called The Clements Brothers. Their debut album, Dandelion Breeze, will be released by the end of the year.
