One Hand Clapping was an original rock group based in North London, England in the early 1970s. It was formed by three brothers, Felix, Jason, and Conrad Warre, with Nick Pepper on drums, and Mick Cervino on bass (followed later by Colin Prior on fretless bass). They released one single with the indie label Curve of the Earth called The Rich Get Rich, which was distributed by Rough Trade, and they toured from London as far as Newcastle, Coventry, Manchester, Birmingham, Swansea, and Cardiff. Cervino went on to play with Ritchie Blackmore's Night and Yngwie Malmsteen on the 2004 G3 Tour, available on DVD. Jason Warre joined The Way of the West, which enjoyed a small hit with White Boys and toured the United States.
