Johnny Clegg was amazing
Neptune Theatre - Seattle
Highly recommend going to see this incredibly talented and engaging performer. The way he included stories and meanings behind the songs and culture of South Africa made the performance feel so much more intimate and personal. One of the best concerts I have ever been to!

Final chapter
Neptune Theatre - Seattle
That it's his final chapter was made clear by Johnny himself. The music was as great as ever! His stories all super, especially the explainaion of the dance moves. But you could see the slowing. That it was all harder than in the past. There was a melancholy toward the end, but he kept us uplifted to the finish.

Johnny Clegg is a Classic of our time!
Neptune Theatre - Seattle
There are number of musicians out there who speak there piece about conditions in this world & about inequalities & injustices, Johnny Clegg is among the top tier of this group & has been for close to 40 years! It was inspiring to see him on stage again & playing with his son Jesse, in this cool small venue to get up close & experience Johnny playing a wide variety of his portfolio, stopping from time to time interface with the audience & share his life stories which he does so well. He is a talented musician & a man with something important to say & it will be sad if this is his final curtain call with us, if it is, we are blessed with having the opportunity & we wish him many fine days on this little planet of ours, but we hope that his cancer stays in remission & he lives out his full life as he truly deserves to do, because his message is one that we need to hear time & time again, hopefully touching another generation through not only his music but Jesse's as well. Go see & enjoy Johnny if you can... Farewell Johnny Clegg!

A fantastic concert. Johnny sang and danced for over 2 hours. Simply a very talented performer and speaker. His son opened the show. I hope that he lives on for many years.

Excellent show!
Balboa Theatre - San Diego
I learned about Johnny Clegg years ago when I was in France, I think. I didn't know that Americans knew about him so was surprised to see that the Balboa Theater was almost sold out. I asked a couple next to me how they knew about him and they said because he played during the World Soccer Cup in South Africa. Anyway, Johnny's music is excellent, he has a great voice, so much energy and was so open with the audience about his story and his illness. I was waiting for him to play Scatterlings of Africa and Asimbonanga which he finally did at the very end. Memorable evening! His son Jesse was the opening act and he is talented, too, but doesn't have the charisma of his father.

From South Africa to Southern California
Balboa Theatre - San Diego
Johnny Clegg is an absolutely amazing performer, musician, and storyteller. He takes time to explain each song and movement and he makes sure the audience experiences the music in the best way. It was a privilege to see one of my favorite performers on stage. Everyone was dancing to his music, singing and happily enjoying life. His passion and humility were evident that night.Also,he had a special gift for us. His son Jesse was able to perform his own music. I was able to hear songs that I had sang and loved for years. The visual effects were amazing and the theater itself was beautiful. I loved the videos playing in the background to each song. I was able to walk to the venue from my hotel which was great! It was in Downtown San Diego which is easily accessible and close to everything from food to the zoo. Johnny is so full of life and truly loves his fans. He even acknowledge those of us who drove down from LA to see him and the places in California he had played in the past. My boyfriend and I had an amazing time. I hope that one day Johnny will be well enough to perform near me again. Thank you to those who coordinated this event. I am so happy to have been able to see one of my favorite artists.
