Clive Farrington’s journey began as the original lead vocalist of When In Rome, whose breakout hit The Promise became a defining track of late‑1980s synth‑pop. The song reached #11 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and topped the US Dance chart, cementing the band's place in music history. The 30th‑anniversary orchestral edition, produced with partnerships with the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Slovenia Symphonic Film Orchestra, added a new dimension to this timeless track.
Beyond When In Rome, Farrington pursued a solo path, releasing Independence on July 4, 2013 (Tough Monkey Records, with distribution from Kobalt Label Services / AWAL). His solo singles—Lost (Driving All Night) with Andrew Mann (2016), Moving In Your Shadow (2017), and The One (From Tournament) (2018)—showcase his continued craft and storytelling through pop, ballad, and crossover styles.
For fans and venue curators, Clive remains an engaging live performer, delivering intimate storytelling and dynamic stage presence. Current 2025 tour activity includes appearances such as Garden Grove, CA (Back to the 80s show, Aug 31, 2025) and Berwyn, IL (Dec 6, 2025). Note that a London show was listed but canceled.
