For over 7 years, Central Texas-based musician Gus Clark has been fronting his own band, “The Least Of His Problems”, as an accomplished vocalist, songwriter, band leader, and multi-instrumentalist. After spending his youth riding freight trains and hitch-hiking across the country and back, making his living busking on the street, Gus returned to his family trade of woodworking, making custom solid-wood furniture with his father. Before long it was clear that he needed to pursue a full time career playing and singing for people across the country. Gus pays beautiful homage to a deep well of golden-era American music traditions, blending 1950s and 60s honky tonk and classic country, with influences from Tex-Mex, Western-Swing, pre-WWII blues, Zydeco and R&B while adding a unique and contemporary style all his own. In a voice that combines unique sincerity with pitch-perfect emotive richness, Clark delivers classic barn-burners, good-time dance tunes, bittersweet heartbreak ballads, and more, taking listeners on a journey through American music, baring his soul, distinct personalty, and inimitable presence. His remarkable tenor  and powerful musical presence are guaranteed to both wrench hearts and propel listeners onto the dance floor, whether Clark performs solo or backed by his rock-solid honky tonk band.

Gus has been featured in Country Music People Magazine, Honky Tonk Times, and many other publications as well as numerous podcasts, sharing his story, his music, and his philosophy with humor and grace. He is currently finishing a new record and excited to be performing at Austin City Limits Festival in October of 2023.

Although born and raised in Eastern Washington, Gus currently resides in the Hill Country of Texas, performing in the area's renowned country dance halls, dive bars, Americana venues, small theaters and lighting up festivals as well as national touring, most recently touring 22 states in 2 months, coast to coast in 2022. In the summer or 2021 Gus and his band spent the summer opening for Charley Crockett and over the years he has shared the stage with contemporary greats and fellow up-and-comers such as Pat Green, Jim Lauderdale, Vincent Neil Emerson, Doug Kershaw, Ryan Bingham, Dale Watson, Jesse Daniel,  Wayne “The Train” Hancock, Rosie Flores, Willi Carlisle, Nick Shoulders, Dylan Earl, Pokey LaFarge, Abe Mac, Eillen Jewell, Cactus Blossoms, Jeremy Pinnell, Whitney Rose, Jaime Wyatt and many more.
