Austin, Texas-born Gary Clark Jr. is a Grammy Award-winning guitarist, singer and songwriter known for his distinct style of blues-rock that weaves soul, funk, and R&B subtly through traditional blues and rock.

After Eric Clapton discovered him at 26 and invited him to play the Crossroads Guitar Festival, Clark catapulted onto the national scene, and released his major label debut, "Blak & Blu," just a year later.

Two years later, he won his first Grammy Award for "Please Come Home" (2014) in the Traditional R&B category, and another in 2020 for "This Land" in the Rock category.

Clark has shared stages with legends such as The Rolling Stones and B.B. King, but it's his own guitar-driven 21st century blend of Black American Music that fuses Americana with punk and hip-hop through emotional solos and raw soul vocals that makes him one to watch.
