Average Superstar
Clifford Lane (aka Average Superstar) has traversed the musical landscape as performer, writer, producer, engineer and all around studio rat. His band, The Poppies, broke the top 40 in Europe with 'She Is Revolution", has co- owned the Looking Glass Studios with Phillip Glass; also doing sound design and mixing his operas and engineering /producing a bunch of his offshoot projects.
Clifford has had his music used in campaigns for Pepsi, Coke, American Express, Captain Morgan's Rum and many more. Spots featuring Kiss, Britney Spears and The Spice Girls, Clifford's a pioneer in the happy/edgy sound of the modern jingle. He is somehow comfortable being equally reverent and irreverent, producing homemade sounding ditties or lush productions. Though the 60s is often his palette, his sensibility is always 100% modern: fusing genres to create his own unique stew. His lust for gear is unhealthy, but he's determined to find one more color one more flavor....
