The Cleave Band began as a side project for lead singer and bassist, Rayhall Cleave. Following an international tour with the college band Section 8, Rayhall left the “business” for a number of years. He began writing music, as a favor to a friend, to be included in a motion picture. In the music writing process, the music literally took on a life of its own, eventually developing into a full blown band.
In 2006, The Cleave Band signed a recording contract with fledgling RileyDuck Records. Their first album is expected to be released in the fall of 2007, with an international tour to follow.
