Clarence Spady (born July 1, 1961) is an American blues singer, songwriter and guitarist from Paterson, New Jersey.

Spady was immersed in music from a young age; both his father (also Clarence) and his Uncle Fletchey were blues guitarists.

Young Clarence took up the guitar aged five and later recalled how he “gravitated towards the blues” after learning how to play chords and solo.

[5] The band soon started writing and recording their own songs which culminated with the 1996 release of Nature of the Beast for the Evidence Music label.

The album received favourable reviews from critics on its release, with Elmore Magazine's Jim Hynes commenting that "Spady has found his comfort zone at the intersection of Blues and Soul".
