The J. Orin Edson Entrepreneurship + Innovation Institute and the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts’ Popular Music Program are delighted to host founding member of the multi-platinum group the Gin Blossoms, Jesse Valenzuela at Fusion on First on ASU’s Downtown Phoenix Campus. We will kick of this series of events with a storytelling session where Jesse will share his journey to from local musician to best-selling artist.
You might recognize his work from the cult favorite film, “Empire Records” — the Gin Blossoms’ hit single, “Till I Hear it From You,” was a mainstay of the nineties. From establishing the band right here, in Phoenix, 35 years ago, to going into business for himself as a solo musician, Jesse has demonstrated entrepreneurial spirit over his multi-decade career. He is continuing to impact and strengthen the industry by sharing his expertise with the next generation of creative entrepreneurs.
