JB Clark

JB Clark was born in Salem, Oregon in 1954 and was raised in Southern California until the age of 11. The family then moved to St. Louis, Missouri. He joined the Air Force at the age of 17. JB has been playing the guitar and singing since the age of 14.

JB performs as a solo artist.

JB is an excellent vocalist and accompanies himself on acoustic guitar & harmonica with a Folk-Rock finger-picking style.

In addition to original compositions, he performs many famous tunes with a focus on those from the 60's and 70's appealing to baby-boomers.

He is able to deliver a multi set performance in a club setting, or a focused and riveting "power set" in a concert style venue. He has a folk-rock quality that is clean and clear.

JB's vocalizations are technically precise with a delivery that is personal and heart-felt. He not only entertains with his music, but also delivers an entertaining banter and a light hearted yet meaningful rapport with his audience.

He is influenced by Simon & Garfunkel, Peter Paul & Mary, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Paul Simon, Gordon Lightfoot, Harry Chapin, John Denver, Bruce Springsteen, Jimmy Buffett, Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, and others.
