Description
William Clark Green Baker Hotel BioIn the proudly independent Texas-country scene, it’s not easy to separate yourself – or toevolve once you have. But for almost 15 years, William Clark Green has done both with a nodto his home state itself, both rooted in the past and barreling toward the future.Boasting sandpaper vocals and country-rock sound at the crossroads of back-alley grit andgravel-road grace, the Flint, Texas, native emerged like many others before – sauntering outfrom Lubbock’s live music loving college-bar scene. But he has since carved a space that isuniquely his own. Pairing singer-songwriter tradition with a progressive musical mindset, he’sboth a troubadour of troubled souls and maestro to lyrical mischief, renowned for underdoganthems filled with sardonic wit, vivid characters and even historical curiosity.Over five previous albums, multiple Number Ones on Texas Regional Radio have joinediTunes Country Album chart toppers, the respect of critics and peers and a vibrant touringprofile anchored on Texas’ biggest stages. But even after so much success, two years oftreading water left Green looking to get beyond his comfort zone.“My whole mentality is that if my voice went out tomorrow, or I lost my arm and my careerended, I’ve got nothing but gratefulness,” Green explains, flashing his signature sense of darkhumor.“But in some ways, we wanted to reach and see what else is out there. I think theband is ready, I think I’m ready, and it’s not really about money or anything. It’s about feelingthat high again, feeling that new-ness.”

With two critically esteemed album releases already under his belt, William Clark Green is back and this time it is getting personal. Give Green a pen and paper and he is a lyrical force to be reckoned with. On his critically acclaimed third release, Rose Queen, he is puts it all on the line and makes absolutely no apologies. “Songwriting is reality. People are scared to put reality on paper, but this is 10 times more reality than my past work,” he explains bluntly. The past few years have been consumed with Green touring heavily in the booming Texas scene and persistently writing a plethora of songs that are pulled from true to life experiences. Green has adamantly pushed his boundaries as a writer revealing, “Songwriting is exactly what is in your heart, in my opinion, it is not about writing a hit. It is about revealing your heart and your feelings on the paper.”
The music on Rose Queen ranges from the familiar Cajan flare he is known for on "Let's Go" to the highly reflective and introspective "Welcome to the Family." In the candidly honest lead single, "It's About Time," Will tackles the harsh reality that a significant relationship must end. He explains, “I think the new record will connect with a certain demographic of people who have been effected by something in their lives and therefore can identify with my stories.”
Not only has Green raised the bar with his seasoned writing and musicianship, he also enlisted a team of powerhouses to mold his full package of artistry. Music industry veteran Rachel Loy was recruited to undertake producing the new record. Green declares, “I was sold on her in just 30 minutes. She installs confidence and challenges me to be better.” Also, in the last year he signed with new management, 415 Entertainment, as well as landed a booking deal with Nashville’s Paradigm Agency. For the first time, Green embraced the nature of co-writing and included 4 tracks of co-writes on the new album.
William Clark Green is definitely no stranger to the music scene; he knew at the ripe age of 13 that he would embrace his passion and work vigorously in order to make a name for himself. As a 7th grader with substantial ambition, he began receiving guitar lessons and spending free time with his cousin writing music and bouncing ideas off of one another. Green draws inspiration from his personal musical hero Willis Allan Ramsey, as well as his father who Green has fond memories of with a guitar in hand.
While attending college at Texas Tech University, Green played for a live audience whenever he could and steadily gained notoriety on the Texas music scene. He credits the Blue Light in Lubbock as his unofficial home, where he spent many nights honing on his craft and gaining a loyal army of followers.
