An evening of music and insight from the renowned troubadour that spans Clark's forty years of rough-and-tumble yet earnest storytelling.

Fans of legendary singer-songwriter Guy Clark are in for a special treat with the release of a new album just months prior to his 70th birthday. Recorded live, 'Songs and Stories' recounts an evening of music and insight from the renowned troubadour that spans Clark's forty years of rough-and-tumble yet earnest storytelling.

This latest effort from Clark includes brand new recordings of "L.A. Freeway," "The Randall Knife," "The Cape," "Homegrown Tomatoes," "Stuff That Works" and other well-known fan favorites. Clark's last two album releases on Dualtone ('Somedays the Song Writes You' and 'Workbench Songs') were Grammy nominees; and Guy is also a member of the esteemed Nashville Songwriter's 'Hall of Fame' and recent recipient of the Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement Award.
