Clay Rose is the lead singer and songwriter for Boulder-based bands, Gasoline Lollipops, and The Widow’s Bane. Although his career as a band leader has spanned a decade, his solo songwriting career began in 1997. He has written and released 10 all-original albums to date. Clay Rose’s ability to tell stories that seamlessly cross genres from folk, to punk, to klezmer, to country has won him an array of awards. These include: 105.5 The Colorado Sound’s Best Local Band award for 2021 and 2022, Best Country Band Award, by Westword Magazine 2015 and 2018, as well as Colorado Daily’s Best Local Band award for 2015, 2016, and 2017. 

In 2020 Rose released Gasoline Lollipops’ 6th album, All The Misery Money Can Buy, at Red Rocks Amphitheatre to national critical acclaim. In 2018 Rose was commissioned by Wonderbound Ballet Company in Denver to write a full-length ballet using all original music written for his other band, The Widow’s Bane. The following year Wonderbound commissioned a 2nd full-length ballet set to the music of Gasoline Lollipops entitled, The Sandman. Wonderbound will be opening their 2023 season with a reprise of The Sandman. Rose is currently wrapping up a new Gasoline Lollipops LP, entitled, Nightmares, to be released in the fall of 2022. Rose is also working with acclaimed Colorado play write, Doug Vincent, to revise and recreate his award-winning one-man play, Grace, which they will be touring coast to coast in the late fall. The play strongly features Clay’s solo music. In addition to all of this, Rose is also in preproduction of his first full-length solo album to be recorded with Octave Records in Boulder, Colorado in the next year.

His music has been featured in Artforum, Guitar World and Guitarist magazines, at the Pompidou Centre in Paris, the American College Dance Festival, the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, and the Everest Awakening benefit album.
