 Liz Clark
LIZ CLARK has been performing music for as long as she can remember. Born into a music loving family in Denver, CO, she was raised on Rock & Roll and Folk music and started playing piano at the age of 8. She taught herself the guitar at 12 so she could play songs by her favorite band, the Beatles. In fact, she played those Beatles songs so well that a year later she was making $15 every Tuesday to play them at the local Irish Pub. In her later teens, she toured colleges and festivals throughout the West in support of her first self-released record "Love and War", which sold nearly 3,000 copies. With her hypnotizing stage presence, sultry voice, and solid pop songs, Liz has opened the stage for musicians Joe Walsh, Ritchie Havens, Linda Perry, Bob Schneider, and Counting Crows before she hit the age of 21. Shortly thereafter, she decided to move to New York City to try her luck. It proved to be a good move. She soon became a fixture on the residency scene playing shows at Rockwood Music Hall, the Living Room and the Red Lion.
For the past two years Liz Clark has been touring and gaining respect in the US, UK, and Ireland. She's currently supporting her latest record out on Pommier Music, "Hand On The Stove". The video to her first single "Who's Your Angel?" went to #3 on MTV's Logo Network. She is currently playing in New York while working on new material for her next album to be released in 2007.
