Editor's note

Gary Clark Jr. plays blues, rock, and soul from Texas.

A guitarist who started young in Austin and keeps it direct.

For a quick sense of his sound, 'Stay' and 'This Land' frame it well. Both have that mix of blues, rock, and soul he's known for.

He came up playing with B.B. King and Buddy Guy as a teenager, then put out songs like 'This Land' and 'Stay' that blend blues grit with rock energy. The guitar work nods to Jimi Hendrix and Albert King without trying to make a grand statement. It's just what he does.

He grew up in Austin and was performing with blues veterans by his teens. His 2012 album 'Blak and Blu' kept that momentum, and 2019's 'This Land' included the title track and 'What About Us.' He's been open about dealing with addiction and recovery along the way.
