Ken Clark wrote all of the songs for The Drakes first CD. Ken's compositions are musical short stories peopled by an odd array of characters confronting the bizarreness of ordinary life. His music has been compared to Warren Zevon, Steve Earl and The 13th Floor Elevators. Also, he has written the music for two musical comedy plays which have been produced in the southeast and he is currently working a third one with long time collaborator John Williams. Included with a mostly solo career Ken has played in The B Side Band and The Unthinkable.
