C-Clamp was a slowcore band formed in the early 1990’s in Champaign, IL and later located in Chicago, IL. For the majority of their lifespan, they were a trio consisting of Tom Fitzgerald (vocals, guitar), Nick Macri (bass, vocals), and Frantz Etienne (drums). Frantz dropped out of the group after the recording of the band’s second LP, “Longer Waves”, in 1999. Tom and Nick played some shows with other drummers before the band quietly faded away.
