Rod Clemmons -- keyboard player/pianist, recording artist, songwriter, producer, arranger, and music director -- is a native of Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
Blind from birth, Rod began studying classical piano at the age of three with one of the music professors at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. He continued his classical piano training at the Arkansas School for the Blind where he graduated from high school. During his education at the school for the blind he received numerous piano awards and scholarship offers from several well-known universities around the country.
He chose to attend the prestigious Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington, Indiana where he had the opportunity to work with great classical music giants including Robert Shaw, Leonard Bernstein, and jazz legend David Baker. Clemmons graduated with honors from I.U. with a degree in classical piano performance, but while he was there he began discovering a love for pop and R&B music and production.
Recording several demos, he sharpened his skills as an arranger and producer. He met the legendary musician Isaiah Sanders who set him on a course of success playing in night clubs and music production in Louisville, Kentucky, then moving on to New York City where he took his place with fine studio musicians.
New York is where he created Verdict Records, his own independent record label that is releasing his debut CD, 'What's Up? It's Me.'
Rod is working with fine musicians like guitarist Tomas Doncker, Willie Brown Jr., Masa Shimizu, and bassist Stanly Banks, to name a few.
