CLAYTON SMALLEY Utah Based Country Artis t BIO Country artist Clayton Smalley is the epitome of Merle Haggard’s “Working Man Blues”. Other than the nine kids Merle references, the song could be the Spanish Fork, Utah based singer - songwriter’s autobiography. A welder by trade, Clayton, a blue collar family man, is a throwback to when artists balanced the responsibilities of working, helping provide for a family, and pursuing a passion for music. Born and raised in Southern Ca lifornia, Clayton grew up listening to artists like George Strait, Keith Whitley and Reba McEntire, which galvanized his love of traditional country music and helped define his own style. Outside of music you can find Clayton fishing the lakes of Utah for Rainbow and Cutthroat trout or hunting in the Nebo mountains. In 2022 Clayton performed at the iHeart Radio Rocky Mountain Country Music Awards where he was nominated for New Artist of the Year.
