Jesse Turner attended a local church in Texas and met his future bandmates. When Turner was 10 years old his father had died and Turner spent his teenage years writing songs as a coping mechanism. Turner founded Siggno in 2000 and released their debut album
Al Principio in late 2001.
Al Principio failed to impact any music chart during its run. The album was released during
Tejano music's post-
golden age era under
Crown Records. Ramiro Burr of
Billboard noted a sense of vulnerability and romantic themes in Siggno's repertoire which distinguished them from regional Mexican boy bands who would rather "raise hell" with their partners. Music promoters found Siggno's sound to be more progressive, but found that groups like Siggno to be more entertainers on stage than an actual performer. The group was nominated for Most Promising Band and
Album of the Year at the
2003 Tejano Music Awards. Siggno released their third album
Caminando under Serca Music. The album peaked at number 44 on the US
Billboard Top Latin Albums on the week ending July 5, 2008. Elsewhere,
En La Radio debuted and peaked at number 33 on the Top Latin Albums chart. Jacob suffered severe
brain damage which left him in a coma for four months. A few months later, the group's album
Yo Te Esperare debuted and peaked atop the Top Latin Albums (their first number one) and Regional Mexican Albums (their third number one). The album featured a cover of
Nicky Jam and
Enrique Iglesias' "
El Perdon", which debuted at number eight on the
Regional Mexican Digital Song Sales chart. Siggno became the ninth best-selling regional Mexican artists in 2016, while
Yo Te Esperare finished as the 12th best-selling regional Mexican album of 2016. During
RodeoHouston 2017, Siggno and
Banda El Recodo broke the all-time paid attendance record at Go Tejano Day when 75,557 people attended. At the event, Joey Guerra of
Houston Chronicle found Siggno's performance to be "emotional". Turner often referenced his son Jacob during the performance. In April 2018, Siggno visited a 5-year old fan who was diagnosed with a
congenital heart defect as an infant, as part of
Make-A-Wish. They invited him to their concert and performed the fan's favorite songs. The following month,
Nixon High School competed to have perfect attendance to meet Siggno. The band had an open Q&A and lunch with the students who won. == Members ==
