ABOUT CLINTON FEARON
Clinton Fearon is one of the most prolific reggae artists of his generation. He’s 74 today and still records new songs every year, new albums every other year and more! Composer, songwriter, singer and player of instruments since his early teens, Clinton Fearon recorded 15 albums under his own name and he’s still touring the world with this impressive repertoire, accompanied by his band or in solo acoustic.
Born in Jamaica, Clinton became the bassist, vocalist and lyricist of the mythic Gladiators at the age of 19. He spent 18 years with the band and signed several songs for The Gladiators, hits and classics like Chatty Chatty Mouth, Richman Poorman, On The Other Side, Can You Imagine How I Feel and more.
Clinton Fearon was also a session musician for different producers in Jamaica, including Coxsone Dodd at Studio One and Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry’s at Black Ark, but also at Chanel One, Aquarius, Harry J, Randy’s, etc. In these studios, Clinton Fearon composed some everlasting bass lines for artists like Yabby You, Jimmy Riley, Max Romeo, Junior Byles and many others.
After leaving The Gladiators and Jamaica in 1987, Clinton Fearon started a new career in Seattle. At first he was one of the singer of The Defenders with his fellow Jamaican musicians. The band built a nice following in the area until they split after five years. And finally Clinton Fearon formed his own band in the mid 90s with local musicians: Clinton Fearon and Boogie Brown Band.
Since 2019, Clinton Fearon is also teaming up with the Riddim Source band, featuring la crème de la crème of the French reggae musicians scene. Together they recorded “Breaking News” in 2022 and “Jah Is Love”, brand new album of the reggae master to be released June 6th 2025.
Each song of Clinton Fearon is a strong message coming from the heart of a man who is dedicating his life to help a better world to come. With chiselled music and poetic lyrics, he opens reggae to a wider audience who simply loves his beautiful songs.
