Stanley Clarke Tickets & 2026–2027 Tour Dates

Stanley Clarke is an American bassist and composer, born in Philadelphia in 1951, whose work spans jazz fusion, funk and rock. He became known as a member of Chick Corea’s Return to Forever and through solo records including Stanley Clarke and School Days; the title track of the latter became one of his signature pieces.

In 1988, Clarke performed at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles with Larry Carlton, Billy Cobham, Najee and Deron Johnson; the concert was later issued as Live at the Greek. A 2004 appearance at the Montreux Jazz Festival became Stanley Clarke & Friends: Live at Montreux 2004, documenting another ensemble setting. In 2008 he toured with Chick Corea, Al Di Meola and Lenny White on the Return to Forever Returns tour.
