Michael Shawn Crahan (born September 24, 1969), more commonly known by his stage persona “Clown”, is an American musician who is one of the two percussionists/background vocalists and co-founder of the Grammy Award-winning heavy metal band Slipknot. When performing with Slipknot, he is also known as #6. As of 2013, Crahan is the last remaining original member in Slipknot.

In 1995, Crahan formed a metal band known as the Pale Ones with fellow musician Paul Gray, which featured himself as the band’s drummer. Wanting to expand the band’s percussion section, Crahan brought in Joey Jordison to fill in as drummer while Crahan’s efforts were focused on percussion. The vocalist playing a second percussion kit gave the band a layered, distinctive drum sound. In 1996, they released a song known as “Slipknot”, and through Joey’s suggestion, the band changed their name to Slipknot and released their first official album. This album would later become known to the band as their demo. Crahan felt that the original vocalist for Slipknot was too guttural, and was the primary reason for Slipknot’s inability to get a record deal. He brought in Corey Taylor from another local band called Stone Sour, whose vocals were more melodic. Slipknot got a record deal a couple years later and released their first official album in 1999. Slipknot gained major notability the same year by touring with Ozzfest. In Slipknot’s early years, Crahan brought several dead cow heads on stage.

He was raised within Iowa along with his Irish parents. He married Chantel Crahan in the year 1992. He later had four children with Chantel Crahan.
