Clive Nolan is a British musician, composer and producer who has played a prominent role in the recent develpopment of progressive rock. He has been the regular keyboard player in Pendragon (1986 - current), Shadowland (1992 - 1996) and Arena (1995 - current), as well as writing lyrics for Arena and producing or co-producing several other bands' albums. In an interview he claimed that the only reason he can manage so many projects at once is that he has no life outside music.

In 1999 Clive Nolan teamed up with Oliver Wakeman to create the all-new progressive rock album Jabberwocky. This album was released under Verglas label. A vast array of artists was involved in this project, including Peter Banks (Genesis) on drums, Peter Gee (Pendragon), Ian Salmon (Shadowland, Janison Edge) on guitar and Tracy Hitchings (Quasar, Gandalf, Strangers On A Train, Landmarq) vocals. Rick Wakeman narrates the piece. Some vocal parts are performed by Michelle Young. (full album review (http://www.musicaldiscoveries.com/reviews/jabrwcky.htm))
