Barclay Macbride Crenshaw (born July 7, 1971), who is known by the stage name Claude VonStroke, is an American house producer based in Los Angeles.
[8] Barclay Macbride Crenshaw was born in Cleveland, Ohio and lived there until he was in seventh grade.

In 2014, Claude began collaborating with Green Velvet (another veteran artist who grew up in the Mid-West), to form a side project known as Get Real.
His self-titled debut album kicked off his "left-field departure from his better-known alias, Claude VonStroke" by delivering "slowed-down, emotive collection of collaborations and instrumentals" or otherwise touted as 'alien hip hop music'.
