Jesse worked with Talib Kweli and Ashley Nicole Black to create this rap about the state of the surveillance state from Full Frontal with Samantha Bee on TBS. Also you can read this article on Pitchfork about it.
Jesse started working with Lyric Opera because he accidentally impressed Renee Fleming. Here it is in her own words. Jesse then composed and arranged a show with her, and Patrick Steward showed up too.
Here’s a clip of Jesse performing at Second City along with Aidy Bryant (SNL, Shrill), Chris Witaske (Free Bert, Progressive), Michael Lehrer (Kill Tony), and Mike Kosinski (Chicago Party Aunt, Impostor). Read an interview with him about his time there.
Jesse performed many Wagner selections as well as his original songs and score for “LOUDER, LONGER, WAGNER” at Lyric Opera of Chicago - all while portraying the (much shorter) titular composer. Here he is inviting you to see a show there. Read a review of the show here.
Jesse composed and produced a bunch of original songs and music for this star-studded audio series from Audible and Broadway Video. Watch some more music he made with Chris Redd, featuring Rhymefest.
