Elijah Minnelli - Clams As A Main Meal (2025)

The album "Clams As A Main Meal" is the new release from dub musician Elijah Minnelli, continuing his unique musical experiments at the intersection of dub, cumbia, and folk. Released under the Breadminster County Council, this work includes seven compositions and features guest vocals from artists such as dub legend Dennis Bovell and Welsh singer Carwyn Ellis. Critics highly praised the "seamless" and "briskly contemporary" splicing of genres, describing the music as "earthy, rootsy mutations on the reggae gene," enriched with elements of folk and cumbia, while also incorporating more experimental and tactile soundscapes. The record confirms Minnelli's status as a unique UK dub experimenter, who previously released handmade singles and is known for his live performances in a full costume made entirely of bread.
