Clarence Tilton

Out on the left edge of the Midwest, Clarence Tilton has crafted an authentic sound that pairs tube amps and Telecasters with Nebraska’s pulsing prairie — living somewhere near the crossroads of Americana and Heartland rock & roll. Formed in 2014 from Omaha’s storied rock scene, Clarence Tilton’s intelligent, evocative storytelling is anchored in the familiar, from family legacy and small town living to beat-up pickups and the great outdoors. Comparable to the best of their neo-outlaw brethren, and as easy and hopeful as a glass of whiskey, they transcend mainstream country tropes, adding personal experience to modern societal issues.
