Clay Clear Band
Clay Clear has been performing professionally since he was eleven, dragged into a smoky honky-tonk by his music loving father. For years, he honed his craft as a lead guitarist and vocalist throughout Missouri. At thirteen, Clay was a founder of cover band Dirt Road Addiction, a favorite in Missouri for performing contemporary country music.
Clay left Dirt Road Addiction in 2020 to pursue music in Nashville, a lifelong dream that was rudely interrupted by the COVID-19 epidemic. After moving back to Missouri, Clay put together the Clay Clear Band to perform his own brand of Southern Rock and authentic Country music inspired by his favorite artists: Waylon Jennings, Ray Charles, the Allman Brothers Band, and others.
Clay has been recognized as Missouri's Best Musician by Missouri Magazine in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. As a solo act, he has opened for the likes of ZZ Top, George Thorogood and the Desteroyers, and David Lee Murphey.

Stranded in the City
Stranded in the City is made up of brothers André Reyes, Jr. and Antonio Reyes, Timmy Keith, Matt Elton, and Densil (D.J) Malabre. Together they form one of Kansas City's powerhouse bands. André and Antonio arose from a musical family tracing across four generations. They met Timmy, a natural rock guitarist, and bassist, Matt, who would later become the core of Stranded in the City. Densil adds his West African style to the mix to solidify the sound.
As a diverse group, Stranded in the City provides a retro flavor in a fresh sound, playing every song with soul and every beat of their hearts. Through the thickness of the groove, they deliver rich vocal harmonies and smoking improvisational skills. Expect a melting pot of genres; R&B, Funk, Country, Tex-Mex, Rock and Pop all in their music. Never the less backed by the right energy.
They perform locally and pack venues in Kansas City and the surrounding areas. In the spring of 2025, they will be premiering their sophomore album.
