About Jesse Dayton

A self-styled outlaw who adheres to the maverick country traditions of his adopted hometown of Austin, Texas, Jesse Dayton first gained fame through his association with Rob Zombie. The rocker turned horror director hired Dayton to write and record the music for Banjo & Sullivan: The Ultimate Collection, a spin-off from his 2004 film The Devil's Rejects. Zombie also had Dayton appear as the leader of the rockabilly combo Captain Clegg & the Night Creatures in 2009's Halloween II, but the country singer can't be defined entirely through the prism of Zombie. On a series of largely independent albums in the 2000s and 2010s, he issued collections of original material and tributes to such idols as Kinky Friedman, taking detours like teaming up with kindred spirit Samantha Fish for a duets album produced by Jon Spencer and maintaining an interesting career on the fringes of Americana music.
