https://www.facebook.com/claytowntroupe
The Claytown Troupe were formed in 1984 in Bristol by lead singer Christian Riou, who claimed in an NME interview that a local clairvoyant advised him to form a band called "the Clayton Troop" who would have success internationally and spend time in America.
During 2025, the current Claytown Troupe lineup supported:
The Godfathers at the Garage, London.
Spear of destiny at the 100 club London, Cardiff and Brighton.
Gene Loves Jezebel in Oxford, Birmingham and The Lexington, London.
Darkfest, an alternative rock festival in Wolverhampton with Balaam and the Angel.
They have been announced as the support for Fields of the Nephilim in October 2025, at Manchester, Glasgow (with Balaam) and the Forum, London.
