Book Review: |

Modern Day Bard
Daniel Capes, The Collegian
Lawrence J. Clark seems to be a reputable jack-of-all-trades; a modern day bard, able to sing songs, tell tales, and weave within his stories an in-depth knowledge which he freely passes on to those who will listen.
Debi Goode, Genesis Alternative High School, Bastrop, TX
The songs were entertaining and on level for our at-risk high school students. The poetry was very meaningful. Our students really enjoyed the performance. Thanks for the CD's--several students have checked them out!
Margaret Rice, University of Houston-Victoria
Clark captivates his audiences by using his literary and musical talent to deliver a message and help people learn.
Kathleen Hudson, Executive Director, Texas Heritage Music Foundation and author of Telling Stories, Writing Songs: An Album of Texas Songwriters
Creative and interesting, this man will draw you into any song he sings. And he tells many stories.
