1. Jason Burger-Born and christened as Jasco Vadasco, this young russian imigrant with his permanent moustache moved to Durban at age 12 and began learning the language. 5 short years later, with the help of COGS Youth, he's lost the accent, kept the moustache and become the smooth, bass playing invention that we know today as Jason Burger.
