After starring in School of Rock, Clark continued pursuing drumming. Most recently, he played in the band Jess Bess & The Intentions, who performed at their first gig on Saturday night (22 May) at the Legendary Wooden Nickel venue in Chicago.
In a tweet, Black called Clark’s death “devastating”, and said he was heartbroken. “Sending love to his family and the whole School of Rock community,” Black wrote.
School of Rock was Clark’s only movie role, which he said he landed by responding to an ad in a local newspaper looking for adolescents who can play drums, keyboards and guitar.
