Clint Holmes

Born: May 9, 1946

Clint Holmes’ story unfolded as if written by fate, yet each turn was so unexpected and remarkably successful, it exceeded even his wildest imagination.

Clint’s father was an African-American jazz singer and his mother was a classically-trained British opera singer. Clint jokes, “My mom taught me how to sing correctly, and my dad taught me how to enjoy it.” Despite being raised in a musical household from birth, Clint believes his musical journey really began when his father took him to an afternoon jazz jam session when he was just 12 years old. Clint later wrote about that life-changing experience in the song “At the Rendezvous,” which featured Joey DeFrancesco on organ.
