1 MAY 2024 · Jerry Frempong has been a volunteer member of the Soundcheck team for a number of years. He’s someone who always brings encouragement, wisdom and joy to every interaction and it’s therefore a real pleasure to sit down with him for today’s episode of Soundcheck Stories and talk through his incredible story as a DJ, pioneer and entrepreneur. We discuss his roots and formative years in London and Leeds, how travel and prayer birthed new ideas and the redemptive journey he has recently taken, following the discovery and release of his father’s musical legacy.

Back in 2021, Alex Traska from MyHouseYourHouse radio got in touch with us at Soundcheck. He and his associate Jackie were organising an event called the Mentally Sound Weekender and he invited us to be one of their nominated charities. We’ll always be so grateful to him and the MyHouseYourHouse community for supporting us, encouraging us and making us part of their collective history. To that end, it was so great to speak with Alex for this episode of Soundcheck Stories and draw upon his extensive experience in music alongside a deep and honest dialogue on grief, shared loss and the power of community.
