From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jay Siegan is a nightclub owner, event producer and artist manager based out of San Francisco and Los Angeles.

As a teen, Jay developed a passionate interest in music that led him to instruments instead of school books. With a strong curiosity for the technological side of sound design, and how emotions are conveyed through this emerging technology, synthesizers, digital sampling and electronic music fascinated him. This lead to him to explore the innovators in this field, while finding personal inspiration in their unique songs and sounds. Siegan has been fortunate to work closely with pioneering electronic performers such as Thomas Dolby and The Human League.

Siegan currently owns the Red Devil Lounge in San Francisco and is the Music Curator for the renowned TEDx SF Conference. Siegan has recently produced shows from an eclectic list of artists from Crowded House to Ozomatli, Sean Lennon, actor Vincent Gallo, avant-garde performance group Laibach, Public Image Limited, Pet Shop Boys and Echo & the Bunnymen. Siegan's latest project is a One Great Night on Earth , a large scale concert outside of Melbourne, Australia that will raise funds for regional farmers affected by environmental crisis.

Other artists Siegan has worked with include: ABC (featuring Martin Fry), Guru Howard Jones, Information Society Jason Mraz, John Doe, KRS-One, Exene Cervenka, The Yardbirds,
