Jesse Clegg is a South African alternative rock artist whose 2008 debut album, When I Wake Up, and his 2011 follow up, Life On Mars,have made the 25-year-old a platinum-selling success in his home country. This is a considerable feat in a place where rock is a niche genre.
Jesse has just released his first live and unplugged album which will be available for sale at all these shows.
Jesse uses an Allen and Heath QU16 desk at all his shows and he recorded his new unplugged album on this desk.
Special thanks to Garden Court Nelson Mandela Boulevard for hosting Jesse throughout his Western Cape tour, and also to Hemingway’s in East London and Protea Hotel Marine in Port Elizabeth for hosting Jesse at their hotels.
In 2014, Jesse brought his music to the international stage. He embarked on a seven week tour across the United States and Canada, which comprised of 32 shows in 31 cities. He has also played numerous high profile showcase festivals in the U.S. – including the CMJ Music Marathon, New Music Seminar and the CBGB Festival. In June, Jesse also performed on the main stage at UK’s Isle of Wight Festival.
Descending from a musical family, Jesse spent the first six years of his life on tour with his father, South African singer Johnny Clegg.
Jesse has achieved much in the 5 short years he has been active. He has released 4 Top 10 singles and toured extensively throughout South Africa, playing the biggest festivals in the country. As an official ambassador for the Nelson Mandela 46664 foundation, Jesse has been invited to play at Radio City Music Hall in New York for the 46664 Mandela Day Concert.
He has been nominated for three South African Music Awards over the course of his career.
