WJCT Public Media and the Florida Theatre present Jesse Cook, LIVE at the WJCT Soundstage.<\/p>\n
A career spanning over twenty five years has brought this Canadian guitarist multiple accolades including a coveted Acoustic Guitar Magazine \u2018Player\u2019s Choice Silver Award\u2019, eleven Juno Award nominations (he won for 2001\u2019s \u2018Free Fall\u2019), a Gemini Award and, most impressively, ten platinum and gold studio albums. Moreover, he has sold out concert halls the world over, produced five PBS television specials and five live CD\u2019s. Not a bad legacy for a guy who never planned to release an album. \u201cIf you had asked me at age 22, I would have said that I would never, never make music for the public,\u201d Jesse Cook says with a laugh. \u201cI would have told you that the public is much too fickle \u2014 they may love you one minute and forget you the next. Well, it turns out I did the thing I said I\u2019d never do, and somehow it\u2019s worked out.\u201d Jesse Cook, clearly, has many more years of memorable performances ahead of him.
