about

We are Pocketful of Claptonite, Athens GA’s Only 70s Canadian Power Trio. This is our debut album, “Ginger Baker did everything Eric Clapton did, but backwards and in high heels.” Our music is Appalachian Trance Metal, referencing the ghosts of the region with energy harnessed from popular and unpopular sources alike. The sounds we make are spontaneous- orchestrated and arranged through the lens of experience, trust, and enthusiasm. PoC reshapes the classic guitar, bass, and drums format into something fresh and hopefully timeless. It’s about texture and contrast coupled with unrestrained melody and ultra-rhythmic propulsion. We like to have fun with our “serious” music.
