Clarence & Calvin was a short-lived American rhythm and blues duo comprised of brothers Clarence Carter and Calvin Scott. Known for their soulful harmonizing, the pair began their musical journey in Montgomery, Alabama in the early 1960s, with notable works like "Step by Step" and "Rooster Knees & Rice". However, after a car accident in 1966 that resulted in Scott's career-ending injuries, the duo disbanded, and Carter embarked on a successful solo career. Their contribution to the soul and R&B genre is marked by their raw energy, emotive vocals, and the blending of gospel influences with contemporary rhythm and blues.
