Jesse Colin Young, a singer known for his work with the Youngbloods, is dead.

The singer/songwriter died Sunday afternoon at his home in Aiken, South Carolina … according to his wife and manager, Connie Young. The cause of death is unclear.

Jesse is best known for providing vocals on the Youngbloods’ 1960s hit song “Get Together” … an international anthem calling for brotherhood and peace.

In addition to his time with the Youngbloods, Jesse also launched a solo career … playing the guitar and singing socially conscious lyrics on a slew of solo albums.

Jesse blended folk, blues, jazz and country with some rock and roll … and he had his hands on all facets of the music industry … he was a songwriter, singer, instrumentalist, producer and label owner.

In recent years, Jesse hosted a podcast … and he was always an activist for social and environmental issues, as a product of the 1960s hippie counterculture era.

Jesse was 83.

RIP
