A mini-slice of guitar magic, from verifiable guitar wizard JESSE GALLAGHER (DA BURDZ, APOLLO SUNSHINE, that guy @ LILYPAD). Strolling through the rolling fields of internet I came square up, face to face with this deal. From last year, but still a moment full of beauty and mystery.

“Why Jesse, I thought, why have you hidden this away?”

It was on his bandcamp, there for the taking, but I didn’t know. I just didn’t know or I would have approached earlier. And while “May 13th, 2013” is slight, it offers a bit of what Jesse has to offer. A guy I wish would record more for sure. I do believe that he performs in one fashion or another each wednesday night over at Lilypad, and BEHOLD, it is wednesday night and YES he is playing tonight!!! And with STEVE KRAKOW/ PLASTIC CRIMEWAVE (guitar man in MOONRISES as well, Chicago’s own!!) no less??? This is all true. Strange but true. Head to Inman Sq. if your evening is empty, this will fill it nicely.
