Clay Street Unit
About this episode
Sam Walker discusses the journey of releasing Clay Street Unit's album and the band's diverse musical influences.
While Clay Street Unit was formed in Denver, most of their members are transplants, with lead singer Sam Walker originally hailing from Alabama. There, he was in a jam band that covered Phish and Grateful Dead songs. Clay Street Unit’s first album, titled Sin & Squalor , was scheduled for release last year through a Sony label. But, when the label folded and the release of the bluegrass band's album was uncertain, it was just another thing for Sam Walker and the group to weather. In this episode, Sam Walker talks about finally being able to release the album and the mix of influences that make up the sextet's sound.
