Thirteen is an impressionable age and it was the timely discovery of David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” on her brother’s stereo that brought forth the realisation of music’s power to evoke, lift and transform the space it occupies.
Kle Savidge arrived in the UK in 1990 from her hometown of Toronto, surmising somehow that she might find herself ever more engaged in the British soundtrack that informed her youth. She immediately found what she was looking for when she stumbled upon a nascent Creation Records and a certain Alan McGee who took her under his wing and made her his right hand woman for the next ten years.
Kle was at the centre of a seminal movement in recent British pop history as a hopeful Noel Gallagher arrived at the Creation office with a demo tape that would change everything. Working with the acclaimed talents of artists such as Oasis, Primal Scream, Teenage Fanclub, Ride, My Bloody Valentine and Jesus and Mary Chain gave her extensive experience in all aspects of recorded music.
Kle has always possessed a unique attraction to groundbreaking music and, when Creation imploded in 2000, she embarked upon a career in music supervision, keen to branch out on her own in an area suited to her interests and talents.
