Meet Jerome Clark
Jerome Clark began the formal study of guitar at Grinnell Music Studios in Detroit. During the past two decades, Clark has performed at Bakers Keyboard Lounge, The Bird of Paradise in Ann Arbor, Mich., the Chicago Theater, the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History and at many private engagements.
In 2009, Clark completed "Water," his first CD.
Clark also has worked as a sideman for various groups in the metro Detroit area. In the summer of 2012, he was the opening band for Walter Beasley at 11th annual River Raisin Jazz Festival in Monroe, Mich.
Clark now leads his own band, The Jerome Clark Trio. His band members include keyboardist and slide guitarist Benson Wheeler and drummer Jabari Kersey. The band plays original music, as well as cover songs with a smooth jazz twist.
