Jesse Clegg back and touring SA

27 Dec 2017

After a successful North American tour, Jesse Clegg is back in SA and will be performing in the Western and Eastern Cape over December and January for a summer acoustic tour.

Fresh off of his three-week US and Canada tour, Clegg will be showcasing his music in a variety of unplugged performances. He will be visiting multiple cities across South Africa including Port Elizabeth, East London, Knysna, Mossel Bay and Cape Town.

Clegg is a singer-songwriter whose three studio albums, When I Wake Up, his 2011 follow-up Life On Mars, and his latest album, Things Unseen, have made the 28-year-old a platinum-selling success in his home country. He has released six top 10 singles and toured extensively throughout South Africa. In 2014, Clegg brought his music to the international stage with a seven-week tour across the United States and Canada, and returned to North America in 2016 for his second North American Tour, playing 36 shows across the continent. Jesse released Things Unseen in June this year with the singles "Use Me", "Souvenir" and "Breathing" all charting nationally.

In September, following on from the radio success of the dynamic DJ Kent’s remix of "Breathing" (featuring Shekhinah), Clegg released a re-imagined music video for the single. Blending Clegg's songwriting, Shekhinah's soulful voice and Kent's instantly recognisable beats, the track is now accompanied by a moody and emotive music video that captures the essence and energy of the song.
