The Cleverlys is a one-of-a-kind, unique comedy and music experience. From the group’s humble beginnings in the Ozark Mountains, to currently headlining festivals and performing arts centers all over the country, even performing regularly on the coveted Grand Ole Opry stage, one thing is for certain: there is no other show like this out there.
The group is comprised of Dr. Digger Cleverly (Guitar, Vocals, Director of Buttery Smoothness), his son Ziggy Cleverly (Mandolin, Vocals), and his nephews Steven Tyler Dale (Banjo, Vocals), Plug Cleverly (Bass, Vocals), and Sock Cleverly (Fiddle, Vocals).
Dr. Digger is the master churner of all things buttery and smooth. As Rolling Stone Magazine put it, “His comedy is a hybrid of Homer and Jethro and The Office.” The New York Times has said, “If Dolly Parton, Earl Scruggs, and Spinal Tap spawned a litter of puppies, it would be The Cleverlys.” “The group has evolved over the years and the comedy and musicality is the best it’s ever been. Our show is now on the top shelf,” says Digger Cleverly. This group is a master class of comedic timing, showmanship, and world-class musicianship.
