Jesco White

Background

Jesco White is a real-life entertainer and Appalachian mountain tap dancer, born in 1956 in Bandytown, West Virginia. He is known as "The Dancing Outlaw" or "The Dancing Hillbilly." In Grand Theft Auto V, he plays himself as a DJ on Rebel Radio, the country and rockabilly station, which can be heard in both story mode and GTA Online.

Events of Grand Theft Auto V

Beyond his radio work, Jesco appears physically in an easter egg. At the foreclosed North Alamo pier off North Calafia Way, he can be found outside a house with a portable radio playing "If You Wanna Get To Heaven" by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. He tap-dances for the whole song, and the track loops so the performance keeps going. The in-game recording includes extra vocals of Jesco singing along, the way he does at his real shows.

GTA Online

Jesco is heard on Rebel Radio in GTA Online. When starting *The Duggan Robbery*, Jamal Amir may say that the car the player must steal used to belong to him.

Trivia
