Anna White & Clam Jamm'
From
a small island in the Gulf of Mexico called Cedar Key, comes a
sound as unique as the musicians who make it. A place where commercial
Fishing, clam farming and barefeet is a heritage and a way of
life and Clam Jamm' is the sound.
Each of the four members blend into the music like like waves
melting into the sand. When listening to their songs you'll feel
like you can actually smell the salt in the air they breathe.
Josh Calvert, Benjamin Bainbridge, Daniel Bainbridge and Anna
White are the elements of the Clam Jamm' sound.

of clam farming, music making, and as a part of the openess of
his parents minds. Through his free spirit comes a dedication
to simple pleasures. For Josh pleasure is putting words to music
which rhyme and make songs. He is a gifted writer and musician.
He is the percussion in Clam Jamm' and the feeling of the gulf
breeze.

Their gift of music was granted long before they were ever born.
It began on the day their parents met. Through their mom comes
the light in their eyes that shines in the making of a joyful
sound. Through their dad comes the variety of instruments which
he brought into their lives. At the same time instilling in each
