After scientifically experimenting with hand feeding wild Bengal tigers in India dressed as a zebra, I decided to take up the sacred sport of basejumping. In a near death experience after ill-advisedly leaping off the 8 floor Granada building in Malaga.is there a Granada building in Malaga?
Ok, most of that was a dream. I'm Jesse, I've made music pretty much all my life. From the time I was a kid making up nonsense songs and all through high school when I practiced guitar religiously and learned how to record on through today. I was in the band Stegosaurus at the tail end of the last century. We recorded an album up in Seattle for Warner Brothers with Soundgarden's producer (their drummer Matt Cameron played percussion), and Led Zeppelin's mixer (Andy Johns) and toured a bit. When our song was playing on the radio, we opened for Toad the Wet Sprocket, members of Weezer, even Megadeth once, odd pairing (but fun show). We sold records in over 20 countries and they liked the song "Trees" in Greece. The band broke up, Stan the bassist made a family and Dave the drummer has an organic farm in DC. We're all dear friends still.
Since then I've been playing mostly acoustic shows and making film soundtrack music. I've played with Glen Phillips and Jack Johnson, Grant Lee Phillips, and a number of good talented people who I forget their names right now. I like wilderness, rasberries (why they spell it raspberry i'll never know), basketball, tennis, and movies, and have recently relearned how to go to sleep before 2 am. Thanks for stopping by.
