Bio

From a farm and ranch in Southeast Colorado near the Oklahoma Panhandle, Clare Dunn’s music is inspired by the rugged country and agriculture way of life she comes from. Working cattle, hauling water, driving combines, tractors and eighteen wheelers from a young age all were a part of everyday life, and what inspire her music the most. 

After graduating from collage, Clare signed her first publishing deal as a songwriter in Nashville and slowly worked her way up through the ranks as a writer and began building a following on the road in her F150 pickup and trailer. With only a 4-piece band, including herself on lead guitar, Clare began to make waves as an Indy artist, growing her fan base one club, one night at a time. In 2014, a gentlemen named Bob Seger took notice and invited Clare out to be his direct support act on his nation-wide arena tour, the “Ride Out Tour”, where she received standing ovations every night at the close of her set. It was during that tour that she signed with Universal Music Group Nashville, and later released “Move On,” “Tuxedo” and “More,” which all charted on Billboard’s Top Country Songs. 

An electric entertainer, Clare has also toured with Cody Johnson, Aaron Watson, Hank Jr., Chris Young, Miranda Lambert, and many more. 

Sidelined after signing her record deal, only to be shelved and silenced, she’s finally free and back on the trail towards playing those same arenas again.

Bringing that same rugged heritage into every aspect of her craft as a singer, songwriter, producer, guitar player, and entertainer, Clare’s latest release, the smoldering and fiery “Colorado” that dropped on May 26, 2023, is her second self-penned and self-produced single since taking the reins back of her creative control and becoming an Independent Artist. “Colorado” follows “Legends,” a poignant, storytelling rocker with themes of courage, ambition and determination, which came out in early March.

Furthermore, Clare recently appeared on Women Who Rock VOX (Amps): Celebrating Women's History Month with Artist, Clare Dunn, graced the cover of Guitar Thrills Magazine, and talked with Suzanne Alexander of RFD-TV about her latest music.

Colorado”, “Ready For a Fight” “Out of the Blue” and “Legends” are now on all platforms and follow her on TikTok and Instagram and @claredunnmusic for the latest updates on touring and music releases.

“Clare Dunn was born for the stage.  She's a great recording artist, singer and guitarist, for sure.  But on stage, that's where she puts it ALL out there for her fans.  All you have to do is see her in concert and you'll know what I mean.”
