Clay Franklins Bio By: Cathy Knighton

Music has been a major part of Clay Franklins life since he first sang at a family reunion at the tender age of six. Thirty-Eight years down the road his focus hasnt changed. From seediest dives on the Oklahoma and Louisiana state lines in front of eight people to the stage of the Wild Horse Saloon in Music City in front of 2000.

Clay is the consummate singer/songwriter/performer. Once asked by a regional music publication about his connection to the audience he summed it up like this, people come out to see live music to be entertained, it may not be a particular song or, for that matter a particular genre. If you can feel the song in your heart, you can always make that connection to the crowd. His live shows have been summed up as always interesting. He becomes part of the audience and the vibe of the show has a back porch feel to it.

Clays career has taken him all over the country in a variety of acts ranging from bluegrass bands to hard rock and everything in between. He enjoys the acoustic duo format the best and as the opportunity to work with some well-known sidemen in his current show. A few of Clays songs have been recorded and/or performed by several nationally know acts and his live acts includes some eclectic selections by some of his favorite songwriters including many of his own songs. Clay never shies away from a request though. In his words, the folks pay good money to hear what they like, I want to play what they like and not force feed them something they might not dig.

Clays current tour is taking him to a lot of place where his old buddies hang out. There is nothing in the world to me more special than sharing music with old friend and making new ones in the process.

To talk to Clay one would never know that he once had an artist development deal with Arista Records or a songwriting contract with industry giant Acuff-Rose. I had a decision to make, family or music. That was a no-brainer for me. We all look forward to seeing and hearing our old friend Clay Franklin again.
