Big news from Clay Hess

Event Details

Bluegrass guitarslinger Clay Hess and his lovely wife Samantha are expecting their first child later this year. They just found out yesterday that it’s a girl, and Samantha is due November 14.

Since leaving Sierra Hull & Highwa 111 last summer, Clay has been working on a debut album for his new group, The Clay Hess Band. Just for fun, he said he will give a free copy of his guitar DVD and an autographed copy of the band CD when it comes out to the first person who can guess the name they have chosen for the baby.

Shoot him an email with your guesses.

Congratulations Clay and Samantha!
