J. Press Icons: Philip Claypool

Raised in Memphis and now splitting time between Charleston and Napa Valley, Philip Claypool is a raconteur, classic menswear devotee, and acclaimed country and blues singer-songwriter. With a voice described by Rolling Stone as"leather and velvet," Claypool can turn even the smallest gathering into a party. In his own words: “I sing for my supper, and I dine with kings.”
