-Clive plays guitar, bass, mandolin, banjo, accordion, percussion, dan tranh, charango, bodhran, various other ethnic instruments, and some piano, and produces between four and ten albums per year in his recording studio, "Pitchfork Studios", engineering most of his own recordings. He is comfortable producing music in a wide range of styles, but his musical "home" is in acoustic folk, world and old-time music.
-Clive wrote the lyrics for the films Swan Princess II and III, the music and lyrics for "Over The Edge at The Grand Canyon" (commissioned by the National Park), and has had more than four hundred original works recorded and published. But he counts "Scripture Power", an LDS Primary children's favorite, as his finest musical achievement.
-Clive founded and directs "Enoch Train", a seven-man ensemble that performs and records folk-flavored instrumental arrangements of hymn tunes, children's songs, and Americana, incorporating ethnic influences from around the world. Enoch Train were the featured performers for SeaTrek 2001, the reenactment of the emigration of 85,000 Mormon converts to the United States by ship, performing on board a tall ship and in Esbjerg, Copenhagen, Gothenberg, Oslo, Greenock (Scotland), Liverpool, Hull, and Portsmouth.
-Clive directs "Caboose", a five-man band that performs old-time and original folk-flavored vocal and instrumental music. Their eponymous first album has just been released.
-Clive founded the four-person pioneer band "Willingly", which travels the state presenting Utah pioneer history in a dynamic, fun-filled assembly to elementary schools and community audiences throughout the state.
-He also performs with "Grouse Creek Lily", a three-piece western band that specializes in early Utah cowboy music.
-Clive teaches Introduction to the Music Business at Brigham Young University in Provo, where he has also taught songwriting in the past.
 After the keynote speaker there will be over 90 classes to choose from, ranging from beginners to experts, local to foreign, and low tech to the newest technological advances in genealogical research.
