An enormous musical accolade is soon to be added to Jesse Clegg’s career with the confirmation of a performance at Carnegie Hall. The iconic venue is considered to be the pinnacle of live music performance halls in the United States.
Clegg will perform there 29 October 2024 during his next American tour.
Carnegie Hall is in New York City. It is one of the most prestigious venues in the world for both classical music and popular music. Since opening in 1891, Carnegie Hall has become synonymous with musical achievement and has been the home to performances by The Beatles, Judy Garland, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, and composers like Mahler and Tchaikovsky.
“I am immensely excited and honoured to be performing at Carnegie Hall for the first time. This opportunity is a culmination of dreams, dedication and a significant milestone in my career. I feel reverence to grace such an iconic stage where some of my heroes have performed and to once again be sharing my music with an American audience in such a special space”‘ says Jesse Clegg.
