Gentleness of Nothing, by Jesse Sykes And The Sweet Hereafter

Gentleness of Nothing

by Jesse Sykes And The Sweet Hereafter

supported by

Tim Grady Saw Jesse and the band recently supporting Sunn O))) in Manchester. It was nice to hear a band that was so appreciated by lots of attendees that were ready for the 125 dB pummeling that would ensue. It was the perfect contrast. I never listened before. Thank you so much. It was really beautiful x Favorite track: Be It Me, Or Be It None.

moonconjunctneptune I love all of Jesse’s records. She’s got this voice that echoes pure spirit. It’s one of a kind and from another time and place. Magnificent in its haunting breath. Beautiful
and memorizing. Joe
Favorite track: Sunday Skin.
