Clay McClinton’s musical roots are firmly planted in the traditions of his Texas birthplace, where strains of country, blues, rock ’n’ roll, and Tex-Mex blend effortlessly into a sound he likes to call “Texas gumbo.” With10 years of constant touring and four albums under his belt, including his latest, Bitin’ at the Bit (Red Chili Records; Feb. 18, 2013), Clay has honed a songwriting and performing style that’s deeply personal, yet has universal appeal. The proof is in his growing fan base: His soul-driven delivery and genuine presence earn him new converts everywhere he plays (not to mention generous support; fans’ Kickstarter donations funded the album). And his label has a new distribution deal with the Portland, Ore.-based Burnside Distribution Corp. It’s clear the formative years McClinton spent on a tour bus with his father, Delbert, left their mark, but even though the occasional vocal inflection or chord change might suggest his dad’s influence, McClinton’s musical identity is distinctly his own.
