Clay DuBose
Rewriting History
Clay DuBose used music to keep him company as an
only child in a military family that traversed
the globe before finally settling down for good
in San Antonio. He got a taste of the music
industry early when his band landed a
development deal with a major label in L. A.
When the band and the deal dissolved, Clay moved
on.
After recording a well-received EP, Life Of
The Party, a period of creative
soul-searching crystallized his writing style
and vocal delivery. Clay began work on
this follow-up. He first recorded an
electrifying version of The Doors "Love Me Two
Times" with Hellcasters guitarist Will Ray, and
then headed to Nashville to track 13 more
original compositions with Ron "Snake" Reynolds.
The album, a country gumbo spiced with rock and
blues and peppered with insightful lyrics, broke
Clay into the world of Americana.
Radio and Records said, "... this project has
developed an impressive story at Americana
radio." It ultimately made it to #23 in
the Radio & Records Americana Chart, to #2 on
the Progressive Country Chart, to #10 on the
Roots Music Report and to #7 on the Country
Roots Music Chart. "Love Me Two Times"
climbed the Music Row country chart as a single
and the rest of the world took notice as the
song was added to 33 international play lists
and reached #17 on the European Country Music
Association's "Top 200 Chart".
