Claudine Clark (born April 26, 1941)[1] is an American R&B musician, best known as the singer and composer of the 1962 hit "Party Lights",[2] which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Career

Clark was born in Macon, Georgia, United States,[1] but grew up in Philadelphia, and she began recording in 1958 for the Herald record label, with her debut single, "Angel of Happiness".[1] She was backed on that recording by the Spinners.[1] Clark then moved to New York, but she also found no commercial return from her recording on Gotham Records, before moving to Chancellor Records.[1] Clark then had a hit with her second single for Chancellor, with her self-penned "Party Lights". Originally the B-side of the label's preference for the A-side, "Disappointed", "Party Lights" peaked at No.5 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] Clark's follow-ups, "Walk Me Home from the Party" and "Walkin' Through a Cemetery", were commercial failures.[1]

She continued to record and compose, including under the alias Joy Dawn for the Swan Records label, but saw no further tangible success.[1]
