Clutch have announced a new live series, which they are calling “Clutch PA Tapes.” The first edition will launch on March 3 and it will feature the band’s August 23, 2022 show at Vega in Copenhagen, Denmark.

The group commented:

“This upcoming Friday, March 3rd we will release digitally the first of 4 mixed and mastered live shows under the banner of “Clutch PA Tapes”. This initial release was recorded on Aug. 23, 2022, in Copenhagen at Vega. As of last Friday, you’ve had the opportunity to listen to the opening track of this show – “Escape From The Prison Planet” at your preferred digital service provider.

These live shows are handpicked by the band and reflect some of the best live atmospheres that can now be listened to by a much larger global audience.

Jean-Paul Gaster says: “The venue that this show was recorded in is the legendary Vega. The stage and sound are top notch but more than anything the crowds are always ready to rock. We love playing Copenhagen!”

This was the setlist:

“Escape From The Prison Planet”
“Impetus”
“Earth Rocker”
“The Mob Goes Wild”
