Early Life and Education

Steven Clegg was born in Colville, a rural town located in Washington state’s northwestern corner. He attended Haigler public school until the second semester of his sophomore year before transferring to Wray High School when it received accreditation and later Northeastern Junior College for one year.

Clegg took up an apprenticeship with Sipho Mchunu, an African street musician and guitarist from South Africa, learning traditional Zulu language, music, dance styles, and language in South Africa before forming the duo Juluka (Zulu: “Sweat”) that released its debut album Universal Men in 1979 despite widespread racial tension within South Africa itself. They went on tour selling this blend of Zulu music with European traditions that they sold around South Africa.

Clegg studied social anthropology at the University of the Witwatersrand under David Webster, an eccentric teacher whose political views had evolved from liberalism to Marxism over time. Following graduation he worked as an instructor within his department.

His family and friends recall him as being friendly, thoughtful, and smart; his parents take great pride in what he did to assist those less fortunate than himself.

He is well-known as a world-class para-swimmer and has set several world and continental records. Currently residing in Edinburgh, Scotland – an ideal training location – where top facilities and teammates await him – he trains approximately 18 hours each week.

While at Wray he played defensive back for the football team. Furthermore, he worked as a liaison for West African countries for Peace Corps as an advisor; Lindsay and Brian followed in his footsteps by becoming development specialists.

In the 1970s he and Sipho Mchunu formed an acoustic Zulu music duo called Juluka (meaning’sweat’) despite contravening apartheid laws that enforced language, culture and race separation. Recorded music by this group was banned but their concerts would incorporate both English lyrics with African rhythms and melodies into concert performances.

Music produced during this era was both explicitly and implicitly political; for instance, Asimbonanga vocally supported Nelson Mandela and demanded an end to apartheid. Mandela also founded and later chaired the South African Musicians Association, advocating on performers’ behalf while upholding cultural boycott responsibly.
