Lajon Witherspoon Biography
Lajon Witherspoon is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on October 3, 1972 in Nashville, Tennessee, United States. Rock singer best known as the vocalist for Atlanta metal band Sevendust. He was named as one of the Top 100 Metal Vocalists of All Time by Hit Parader magazine in 2008.
He has been cited as a major influence by other popular rock and metal singers, such as Aaron Lewis of Staind.
Before his days in Sevendust, Witherspoon was the frontman of a soul group, Body & Soul. In 1994, his group supported local group Snake Nation, at a gig. Impressed by his vocal abilities, Vinnie Hornsby and Morgan Rose asked Witherspoon to sing for their band. Guitarist John Connolly, the former drummer of the Piece Dogs, and Lee Banks joined them to form Rumblefish. The name was soon changed to Crawlspace. When the band’s schedule proved too much for Banks, Clint Lowery from North Carolina’s Still Rain replaced him. The band had to change their name again when a group on the west coast claimed the rights to it. Struggling with a new moniker, the members settled on Sevendust after Hornsby found a can of Sevin (an insecticide powder) in his grandmother’s garage.
On Saturday, November 9, 2002, Lajon’s brother Reginald (age 21) was fatally shot in Nashville, Tennessee. Lajon heard the news from his father just minutes before the band’s performance in St. Joseph, Minnesota. His father urged him to go on with the show and dedicate it to Reginald. Sevendust had postponed all shows until November 15 where they performed in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire.
He has daughters named Maya Diane and Jada Legend.
