The Profile

American singer-songwriter; founding member of The Byrds; influential in folk-rock and early country-rock; solo debut credited as Gene Clark & The Gosdin Brothers (1967).

Born Harold Eugene Clark (November 17, 1944) in Missouri; founding member of The Byrds; left The Byrds after a panic attack/fear of flying in the mid-1960s; solo debut credited to Gene Clark & The Gosdin Brothers released in 1967; collaborated with Doug Dillard (Dillard & Clark) and worked with guitarist Clarence White; died May 24, 1991. The song "White Light" and tracks like "Tried So Hard" and "Echoes" are frequently cited among his key works.

The 1967 solo debut credited to Gene Clark & The Gosdin Brothers showcases Gene Clark's melancholic, crystalline voice and early country-rock songwriting. Contributions from Clarence White and Doug Dillard help plant the seeds of the emerging country-rock sound. Critically admired but commercially unlucky, the album contains highlights such as "Tried So Hard," "Echoes," and the song "White Light."
