In any discussion regarding songwriters and lyricists of 21st century indie music, Alec Ounsworth and his moniker, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, will feature prominently. Few have been as consistently brilliant, eclectic, and intimate; fewer still remain defiantly independent, refusing to sign deals that compromise artistic vision.
That is what characterizes Ounsworth’s oeuvre, especially the lifetime project he initiated sometime in the early 2000s, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. And with each release since its landmark self-titled debut, he has refined and broadened his sound, indulging an ever wider set of influences.

Special guest Chiffon open the show on Thur. Nov. 3rd. Chiffon's AmyReid, Chase O'Hara, and Will Ryerson create the smoothest grooves. Performing scintillating, syrupy dreamscapes paired alongside sweat-drenched club jams, their ethereal R & B is a powerful live experience
Watch Chiffon's video for Woke Me- The Corey Hughes-directed visual for “Woke Me” is like a dream state event set in an opulent ballroom of enchantment and wonderment. Captured and curated before the lockdown; the audience is invited to join some of Baltimore’s best and brightest stars that are criminally underrepresented in both — and outside of their home digs.
