JESSE CLEGG VISITS THE CITY OF PEOPLE AND SHOULD NOT BE MISSED!
Young upcoming singer Jesse Clegg will be entertaining the city
of people this coming Friday 25 September at Rio Casino.
Jesse was born in Johannesburg in 1988. By the time he was six
months old he was on tour with his father Johnny Clegg and
between 1988 and 1994 he spent at least 5 months a year on the
road. He was a classic road kid and grew up back stage and on
tour busses.
Early on, Jesse carved out an independent direction for himself
in the rock genre, very different from the world music style
developed by his father.
He strived to express himself in the most authentic way possible
and understood the importance of being able to perform live. He
experimented with a number of different instruments - which
included saxophone, clarinet, drums and piano until he settled
and focused mainly on guitar.
By seventeen, songwriting was his musical focus and it was in
this period and the years to follow that he honed his writing
skills and put together the songs recorded on the first album.
Make sure not to miss this extravagant singer at Rio Casino.
