The Claudettes

The Official St. Louis Album Celebration for the Claudettes' Acclaimed 2026 Release GARAGE GLAMOUR!
October 1 at Blue Strawberry is the Claudettes' ONLY St. Louis show of 2026. This year brought the first new Claudettes album release in four years: the critically lauded GARAGE GLAMOUR, which provoked press raves like this:

“Well, if this doesn’t have the thrust of elaborate music out of the ‘70s with rock dipped generously in a cauldron of the Mael Brothers of Sparks….Arranged with muscle and both barrels of the glorious vocals of Rachel Williams….The LP is laid out like a good noir film, scene after scene of great characters in ambitious settings….You can almost hear the likes of Patti Page, Joni James & Julie London going for broke on this….Laced like fruit punch at a Beat Generation rent party….One of the year’s best. Filled with surplus excitement. Trust me.”—John Apice, Americana Highways

Don't miss the only St. Louis show of the year by Chicago's revered mixologists of piano-powered blues, jazz, soul and rock 'n' roll...a uniquely potent roots-rock sound they call "garage cabaret"!

Claudettes founder/pianist/composer Johnny Iguana is co-composer of the original score for Emmy-winning smash FX/Hulu series 'The Bear.' In addition to releasing six Claudettes albums plus two Johnny Iguana albums on the iconic Chicago blues/jazz label Delmark Records, Johnny has played keyboards on many Grammy-nominated albums and has recorded with Derek Trucks, Johnny Winter, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, James Cotton and many more.
