Pretentious Beer Co: JD Clayton

  • September 20, 2024

Category: Culinary arts, food and Music

We are so happy to be bringing JD Clayton and Leon Majcen to Pretentious Beer Co. on September 20th for the Blue Sky Sundays Tour!

The Fort Smith Arkansas native, JD Clayton, released his debut album Long Way From Home, early last year which has received overwhelming critical acclaim. There’s no artifice surrounding the Arkansas-born singer and songwriter. No glitz. No pretension or mythology. JD Clayton’s sound, and where he chooses to make it—Arkansas, the most western of the southern states—is a bridge between the southern rock on which he was raised, and the truth telling tradition from the 70s era of country music that he most favors.
