Anne Erin Clark (born September 28, 1982), known professionally as St. Vincent, is an American musician and singer. Her guitar playing has made her one of the best guitarists of the 21st century by multiple media outlets.[1][2] Rolling Stone named Clark the 26th-greatest guitarist of all time in 2023.[3]

When asked during a 2014 interview with Rolling Stone whether she identified as gay or straight, Clark responded: "I don't think about those words. I believe in gender fluidity and sexual fluidity."[4]
