France-based Jazz Pianist, Guitarist, Compose & Improviser Rob Clearfield

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with France-based Jazz Pianist, Guitarist, Composer & Improviser Rob Clearfield. Originally from Oak Park, IL, Rob’s music journey began with garage bands, gospel choirs, and South American guitar ensembles before studying at the Chicago College of Performing Arts at Roosevelt University. He went on to spend 15 years immersed in Chicago’s vibrant scene before relocating to France—a move that coincided with the pandemic and shaped his artistic path. We dig into his story, influences, and his latest work. A fascinating conversation with a boundary-pushing musician.🎶 Get the album: Voice in the Wilderness For More Famous Interviews:Subscribe via Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgi6GpDDDrc_PgOzaERGbLQ Subscribe via iTunes/Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/famous-interviews-with-joe-dimino/id1660256991Subscribe via Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7j92QDS13LXgajPt80X2dhThe Home of Famous Interviews:http://famousinterviewswithjoedimino.blogspot.com/Contribute to Famous Interviews via PayPal:                  https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ER  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
