Shaun Morgan

Shaun Morgan Welgemoed ([ˈveːl.χɐmut], born 21 December 1978) is a South African musician. He is the singer, songwriter, and guitarist for the rock band Seether.
Morgan spent most of his early life in South Africa. His parents divorced when he was still a child. Morgan is one of three children; he had a brother, Eugene, who took his own life in 2007, and a sister, Lucy. He was a student at Merchiston Preparatory School and Maritzburg College in Pietermaritzburg, where he became a prolific front-row rugby player for his age-group's top teams in his first three years of high school. In his third year of playing rugby, Morgan injured his back and was unable to play anymore, which then led to him following his passion of playing guitar.
At the age of fourteen, he discovered the Seattle grunge movement after listening to Nirvana's Nevermind album, which inspired him to become a musician.
