Elton John Concert Tickets Today’s knighted superstar was born Reginald Kenneth Dwight in 1947 in Pinner, Middlesex. Like many, Elton John faced some resistance from parents and family as he left school to pursue a music career, but after playing the piano since age 3, John was adamant about making it in the biz and ultimately wrote his career-launching songs in an apartment building where he lived with his mother and step-father. He stayed in the family home not far from his birthplace until simultaneously achieving four American Top 40 albums. By that time, Reginald Dwight was already known as Elton John, which he created by combining the names of Bluesology saxophonist Elton Dean and Long John Baldry. Elton John started his music career as a student and was hired at age 15 to play piano at a local pub which grew into backup vocals and songwriting. Fortunately for Sir Elton John’s extreme fan-base and those profiting from his extensive philanthropic efforts, he decided to write and produce more complex tunes and released his first album, Empty Sky, in 1969. From there, the mogul’s music career sky-rocketed into an extremely successful empire, including a distribution label, touring and more.
