Jesse Kates: Jesse's latest project, The Sexy Accident--traversing a poppier yet unavoidably unique terrain--has just released their new album, Tourism. Available for only $10, with free shipping!

He's also involved in a project called McCracken, with namelessnumberheadman's drummer, Chuck Whittington. This expands on the loop-based work he did on Sleight of Hand, taking it in a more bombastic direction, tying you down and pummelling you, then running you over with a sonic steamroller. Check out their video clip and see what we mean.

The mission was simple: produce an outstanding, unusual solo album without studio trickery. Jesse Kates brings us a brilliant, enthralling new offering in Sleight of Hand.

Whitford's second album, Whitford Whitford, is now available on ITunes. You can also get it on CD, of course, through Amazon or CD Baby.
