Music

Hot beats, icy noir, raving rock, stirring soul…the Claudettes reach new heights of aural audacity with the astonishing GARAGE GLAMOUR (2026, Pravda Records). Fiery and fabulous frontwoman Rachel Williams dazzles on this album, just as she has been on Claudettes stages since 2023. GARAGE GLAMOUR features production by Grammy winner/musical Renaissance man Steve Berkowitz and by JQ, who co-composed the score for smash TV series “The Bear” with Claudettes keyboardist/songwriter Johnny Iguana. Along with the band’s mighty Zach Verdoorn (bass, guitar) and Michael Caskey (drums) you’ll hear guest performances by revered blues/soul man John Primer and endlessly in-demand guitarist Ella Feingold (Silk Sonic, Eyrkah Badu). (Liz Ele became the new Claudettes drummer in the spring of 2026.)
