CLAYTON FEATURED ARTIST
“I’ve been using Clayton picks for almost 10 years, and I haven’t used another pick since. It’s a sensation perfectly made for my bass playing.”
Adrian Caliman
Adrian Caliman was born in Maracaibo, Venezuela, and began his bass-playing career as a teenager in 1991. Being raised listening mostly to British music while living in Manchester, England, during his childhood with influences like The Beatles, Yes, Genesis, Queen, and Marillion. He started writing meaningful and emotional songs at an early age while he was still at school, making his first recording session with the band “Signos” in 1992. Since then lots of bands have come and gone throughout the 90´s but never stopped performing. In 1998 formed a Beatle tribute band called “Beatlemania”, where he began performing as Paul McCartney from small gigs to big venues, concert halls, and theatres in different cities of Venezuela. After almost 20 years, a few performance highlights with Beatlemania include opening for Venezuelan-recognized musicians. Most recently, in October 2019, Adrian joined a musical group based in Houston, TX, “Segunda Nave”. In 2021 they released on YouTube and Spotify “Baila”, “Oscilador de Amor”, and “Sol Azul”. I made the arrangements and produced the songs. Currently, the band is making an album, which will probably be released by the end of the year. However, in the meantime they have been uploading more songs on their platforms.
