College of the Ozarks graduate Sam Clanton can often be heard busting blue grass licks late into the night. In a sense, Sam's career as manager of the Stone County Gazette has as much to do with music as journalism. While going to school at CofO Sam started facilitating an underground music scene. Sam's coffee shop posse was forced by school administrators to close shop or have shop closed on his educational opportunity. Clanton covered the Branson area for years, writing for the Branson Daily Independent and the Taney County Times before becoming the editor of the Stone County Gazette. Sam's true passion is his music - Blue Grass - Country - Rock etc...This cuts from his punk phase....
