Jesse Diener-Bennett

Jesse Diener-Bennett

Jesse started driving his parents up the wall at the age of three by playing one note over and over on their upright piano. Fifteen years later, he began banging his head against the wall of music composition. Now in his early twenties, Jesse continues to bang on pianos and against walls, and he also likes to write about what happens when other people do too. He is a contributor to music sites Pop Damage and Sick of the Radio, and on some God-forsaken wintery midnights when the oppressive weight of the full moon is upon him, he writes articles for eHow and Answerbag.com.
