Jesse Katz was born and raised in NYC. He would, like late, great songwriter and friend, Billy Cohen, “take the 2 to Wakefield for you… [and] … stab a thousand yuppies for you.” He edits the monthly zine, Having A Whiskey Coke With You, and plays rock music with New Atlantic Youth, The Brooklyn What, and John-Severin & The Quiet 1s.
