Hi, I'm Clark. I play the piano. Mostly, I play blues music. I also perform swing, country, rock, R&B, and classical music, too.

I've been very fortunate to perform, and record, with some of the best artists in blues, including Billy Boy Arnold, Lurrie Bell, Nappy Brown, The Cab Calloway Orchestra, Sean Costello, Big Joe & The Dynaflows, Bob Margolin, Will McFarlane, Big Bill Morganfield, Danny Joe Reagan, and Junior Watson, at venues around the world, at many great blues festivals, and on NPR's Prairie Home Companion.

    I'm the piano player on Long Time Coming, the BMA-nominated, album for '50s R&B legend, Nappy Brown. The album, which has received many excellent reviews, features an all-star lineup of jump blues specialists, including Mookie Brill, Big Joe Maher, Bob Margolin, John Nemeth, Junior Watson, and the late Sean Costello.
    On Big Bill Morganfield's new album, Born Lover, I play the piano and the Hammond B-3 organ. This is the fourth album by Muddy Waters' son, and also features Bob Margolin and Brian Bisesi (on guitars, and as co-producers), Steve Guyger, Mookie Brill, and Chuck Cotton. The CD has just been released, and is already getting great reviews (here's the All Music Guide review and here's another review).
