Country artist Clayton Smalley is the epitome of Merle Haggard’s “Working Man Blues”. Other than the 9 kids Merle references, the song could be the Spanish Fork, Utah based singer-songwriter’s autobiography. A welder by trade, Clayton, a blue collar family man, is a throwback to when artists balanced the responsibilities of working, helping provide for a family, and pursuing a passion for music. Born and raised in Southern California, Clayton grew up listening to artists like George Strait, Keith Whitley and Reba McEntire, which galvanized his love of traditional country music and helped define his own style. Outside of music you can find Clayton fishing the lakes of Utah for Rainbow and Cutthroat trout or hunting deer, elk and grouse in the Nebo mountains.
