Listen as we sit down with the world renowned musician Clarence Ward III. This is a long episode chopped full of gems, far more than any description can capture.

Some of this episodes topics include, “How did you know your wife was the one?”, Breaking down our roles as fathers, have a close and closed off Circle, Being vulnerable as a man and how having expectations and being consistent is a keystone, Manhood is consistency. Respect for elders, and why Clarence’s life has been the best since his wife became a stay at home wife……

We start with growing up in Baltimore and the responsibilities of being the oldest child in a single parent household.

Inspired by Roy Hargroves “The Tokyo Sessions”, Clarence heard Baltimore trumpeting Antonio Hart and knew that he would master the trumpet.

We get into the business of music and learn what it was like performing with Aretha Franklin, Bebe & Cece Winans, Ledisi and more. We touch on the music scene in Baltimore and ask the question, “why are some musicians difficult to book”.
