Backstory:
Clumsy Crack is a group of four friends who formed the band after a spontaneous, late-night jam session in their college dorm room. They originally started as a cover band, playing hits from their favorite artists at local bars and college parties. But as they gained more experience and discovered their unique sound, they began writing and performing their own songs. The band name ‘Clumsy Crack’ symbolizes the imperfections and rawness they put into their music. They believe that the cracks in life, though clumsy, are what make it beautiful and worth living.
The four members, lead vocalist and guitarist Jax, drummer Luke, bassist Sam, and keyboardist Benny, all hail from different musical backgrounds. Their diverse influences, including punk rock, blues, pop, and country, blend seamlessly to create a sound that is uniquely their own.
