Band Bio:

Cass Clayton Band is a 6-piece, female-fronted band blending funk, soul, rock and contemporary influences. Cass and co-writer/producer, Taylor Scott, have been praised for their modern approach to songwriting, and they aim to continually innovate and provide unexpected twists for the audience. No two shows are ever the same, with the band effortlessly moving from funk, to rock to R&B, building the energy and dynamics. Their tight chemistry and high-energy stage presence has led to their evolution into one of the top female-led bands in the region.

Cass was recently voted Favorite Female Vocalist of 2024 (Colorado Blues Society Members’ Choice Awards). The band has won 6 songwriting awards, garnering top reviews from magazines nationally and internationally. Their PLAY NICE album ranked #1 on the National R&B Radio Chart (Roots Music Report) for 11 weeks, as well as #1 R&B Album in Colorado. Cass has been featured on the cover of RECORDING MAGAZINE, along with feature articles in Guitar Girl Magazine and AMERICAN SONGWRITER. The band’s 4th full-length studio album, MIDNIGHT IN A BOTTLE, comes out on all platforms on May 17, 2024.

Recent Press:

 

AMERICAN SONGWRITER – “It’s Clayton’s velvety vocals atop the instrumentation that makes this song so special. The mellow guitar helps sweep listeners up while Clayton’s lyricism paints a vivid picture of a distant past…” Full article here

ONSTAGE MAGAZINE –“Cass Clayton is a Colorado based singer-songwriter whose singing oozes of smoke and honey while her slide guitar playing is simply badass.” Full article here.

RECORDING MAGAZINE -“I fell in love with the album after just one listen. First time listeners are always amazed to hear Cass sing – a petite lady with a smoky-sweet voice that sounds like it should be coming from someone twice her size.” Full article here.

BLUES BLAST MAGAZINE -“Cass Clayton is a product of the Colorado music scene and combines rock, soul, blues, funk and R&B into a smooth and cohesive package. Each song tells a story and Clayton and company are up to the task… Taylor Scott is a fine guitar player whose skills are evident in each track.” Full article here.

NOHO ARTS DISTRICT -“It feels like a live album.  The songs are arranged in such an open organic way, the stories unfolding from one song to the next in a gorgeously cinematic and artfully thoughtful journey.  Seriously…it’s a soundtrack.  Someone should write a movie to this album…what an epic love lorn trek through a sublime and stupendous artists mind….love, love, love it!” Full article here.

OBSCURE SOUND -“Among my favorites is the second track, ‘Little Things.’ A rousing vocal presence and playful organ backing is steadily accompanied by brass, with the track rising in blues-driven suaveness as it progresses. The ‘you got a million followers / what is that really worth?’ interlude approaching the three-minute mark, sported by a lush organ backing, provides some entrancing variety.” – Full article here.

SLEEPING BAG STUDIOS -“Cass is beyond fantastic; endearing & powerful in equal doses – and with a comfort, confidence, and cool that an artist like Bonnie Raitt would bring to her music – REAL R&B – you absolutely can’t take your ears off her performance on ‘Little Things’.

Every time I felt like this album couldn’t potentially get any more enjoyable, Cass Clayton Band would create something like this that absolutely stole the show all over again – this lady’s voice is second to NONE when she lets the power take hold.” Full article here.

BIG SKY STATE BUZZ –“On their new album ‘Play Nice,’ the first thing you’ll likely notice about the Cass Clayton Band is Clayton’s distinct and powerful voice. Whether it’s god-given talent, hard-work, or a mixture of both, Clayton shines on the whole album.” Full article here.
