Clarence Spady

Blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter Clarence Spady incorporates influences spanning jazz, rock, Latin, and soul music into his sophisticated style. Onetime leader of the West Third Street Blues Band, he continued to perform and develop his craft throughout his life, although full-length solo recordings have only appeared every dozen years so, beginning with 1996's Nature of the Beast. The Blues Music Award-nominated Between Us saw release in 2008, with the autobiographical Surrender eventually following in 2021.
