Darcy Clay was born Daniel Bolton, and lived in Birkenhead through his youth but also spent nine months as a 14-year-old in Atlanta, Georgia and later 18 months with the rest of the Boltons in Australia.
Whilst on these teenage escapades Darcy was able to connect with his sentimental boyhood musical favourites Motley Crue, who he saw in concert. Nothing for Darcy could touch Motley Crue's Shout At The Devil, the first album he ever bought. He was "obsessed with metal", going to Metallica and Poison concerts and to this day still thinks "Metal's the best sort of party music" and that "AC/DC are a great party band".
Darcy was made famous in 1997 for his #5 hit Jesus I Was Evil, in which he recorded all instruments in his bedroom on a 4-track recorder. He was signed to Antenna Records, and was Antenna's first real star.
Darcy committed suicide in 1998, before he was due to appear in a anti-suicide concert. He was 26.
