Josh Karpeh, AKA Cautious Clay, is a profoundly modern songwriter and visionary producer.
While his sound often echoes the emotional depth of artists like James Blake and Sampha, his roots run deep, crediting Stevie Wonder and Quincy Jones as ever-present influences.
Cautious has made his mark as a writer and producer, with credits spanning artists such as Billie Eilish, John Mayer, John Legend, Khalid, Kavinsky, Melanie Martinez, Remi Wolf, and more.
Following his introspective, jazz-leaning album KARPEH, he returns with The Hours: Morning - a new project that channels the refined pop precision that he’s honed over the past decade.
Now, we’re taking the singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist to Manchester for a very special live performance.

Cautious Clay
Pop-Soul
The project of Cleveland-born, Brooklyn-based producer/singer/songwriter Josh Karpeh, Cautious Clay balances anthemic pop and soulful fireside electronica. First drawing attention in the blogosphere for his 2016 cover of Toro y Moi's "So Many Details," Clay released his sultry debut single, "Cold War," in mid-September of 2017. It was ranked number one at Hype Machine by the end of the month, and he followed up quickly with the more rousing "Joshua Tree," both of which appeared on his 2018 debut EP, Blood Type.
