WTJU presents: The Michael Clem Band

About The Michael Clem Band: 

For the past twenty-five years, Michael Clem has been playing bass, singing and writing songs for the national touring act he co-founded, Eddie from Ohio.  Over that time, EFO amassed a sizeable grassroots following, released nine CDs (all independently) & collected numerous Washington Area Music Association Awards.  In the past seven years, with the band slowing down, Clem relocated from Northern Virginia to Charlottesville, VA where he's established quite a foothold in its vibrant musical scene, from session work to bluegrass gigs to forming his own acoustic trio.

Ten years after his first solo album, Clem released his better-late-than-never sophomore album "Fifty Clementines" of thirteen previously unreleased songs in Jan 2016.
Recorded at the Charlottesville JLM Studios and co-produced with James McLaughlin, Clem brought in 30 friends from all over Virginia ñ among them: Ellis Paul, Terri Allard, Katherine Caine, Rusty Speidel - to contribute their amazing talents, to this unique and purely CLEM album.

"...a man impossible not to like" -Cville Weekly

Clem debuted FIFTY CLEMENTINES in two sold out shows in his hometowns.  The Special Birthday shows are ON again.
