It's been three years since Les chatted with the incredible Claybourne Elder, and he's back to discuss his most personal project yet. Claybourne's new album, "If the Stars Were Mine," officially drops this Friday, April 3rd from Center Stage Records.
In this episode, Clay opens up about the year-long journey of curating this record and the unique vulnerability of stepping away from a script to tell his own story. We explore the inspiration behind tracks like "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" and how fatherhood shaped the song "Paving the Runway." Plus, we chat about City of Strangers, his non-profit that has now gifted over 4,000 Broadway tickets to the community.
We're kicking things off with Clay's rendition of "It's So Nice to Have a Man Around the House." Enjoy!
