1) James Cooley AKA Mesita is an American multi-instrumentalist from Colorado. He started releasing music under The Frustration Corporation, a plunderphonics project. He released his debut album under Mesita, Cherry Blossoms, in June 2008, with his debut EP No Worries coming out around a year later. In 2010, he released his second EP Living/Breathing. The EP changed his sound from indie rock to a more polished indietronica/pop sound. His second album Here's To Nowhere was released in March 2011, being supported by the single "Somewhere Else/The New Age". His third, The Coyote was released on April 3, 2012. In April 2013, he released XYXY, his 3rd EP. All of the songs from this EP were recycled onto his fourth album Future Proof, released on October 8, 2013. Mesita's album The Phoenix was released before New Year's Eve on December 30, 2014. It features the singles "The Villain" and "Phoenix Deluxe". In 2015, he released the single "Be The Light" which would be tagged onto his 4th EP Small Table as a bonus track in 2016, the title being a reference to the double meaning of his artist name. Only a few months after the February 2016 release of Small Table, he released "With Love, From Laniakea" which was supported by two singles, those being "Montana" & "Blank Slate". His 5th EP "Mall Music" was released in 2017, supported by the singles "Compliments", "Spiraling", "Intimacy" & "All Out in the Open".
After his mother's passing, He would move away from Chicago, which he relocated to with the recording of Future Proof, to New York, and start work on Littleton, an album dedicated to her. The album would be his first to be made in a professional DAW, the DAW being used is Reason. The song Sorting would be added onto Littleton shortly after release. Mesita would release his 6th EP "Repackaged Trash" in December 2018.
Sometime in 2019, he would become viral on X (Formerly Twitter) for doing short under 1-minute songs for people who asked. This led to the album "You Are Beautiful" in 2019, which consisted of longer versions of these styles of songs. This would eventually turn into a series in his discography, with "You're Still Beautiful", "am i still beautiful" and "everyone is beautiful".
After "You Are Beautiful", Mesita would release his 7th EP Blackwhite. All of the songs off of Blackwhite were released as singles before the release of the EP.
In 2019, Mesita would release their 7th Album Eat Ass or Die Trying. This album has been described by Mesita as his "mental breakdown album" Comparable to the "Beautiful Series", it features an almost spoken word type of singing/writing that feels like a conversation through song. In 2020, it would be reissued in a deluxe version with a second disc titled "We Are All Going To Die" His 9th album (counting We Are All Going to Die) "Empty Island" would release later in 2020. His 10th album and the spiritual successor to Eat Ass or Die Trying "Life is Flashing Before My Eyes One Day At a Time" would release in 2021.
After this album, Mesita's releases would become scarce, only dropping songs just to immediately delete them off of whatever platform it was uploaded to. Mesita has a history of wiping their discography from streaming and other services such as YouTube, leading to many songs/videos being lost, even to Mesita himself. His original YouTube account would be deleted at some point between 2019 - 2020, He now uploads under the Mesita Reuploads account. His 11th album is set to release in March 2024.

LONE WOLF
Mesita Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in the fields out off
I've no place in their world
Sunny day
and the clouds array
on my own here on out.
a lone wolf,
I was born a distant beast
I will claw to get away
To be known
as alone,
the fields be here to talk.
Watch your step
I will fight;
My teeth are sharper than most
Cause I am
a lone wolf,
I was born a distant beast
I will claw to get away
The lyrics of Mesita's Lone Wolf convey a feeling of being an outsider and having a strong need for independence. The opening lines, "Born a beast in the fields out off, I've no place in their world," suggest a sense of not fitting in with the norms of society. The singer further reinforces this feeling in the second verse, describing a sunny day with clouds, but noting that they are on their own. This creates a tone of isolation and detachment, highlighting that the singer is not afraid to be separate from others.
The chorus contains the repetition of the words "lone wolf" and reinforces that the singer feels like a "distant beast." However, there is also a sense of strength here, as the singer "will claw to get away" and fight tooth and nail to be known as alone. The final verse further emphasizes this strength and resilience, stating that the singer's teeth are sharper than most and they will fight hard to maintain their independence.
Overall, Mesita's Lone Wolf is a powerful and introspective exploration of feeling like an outsider and valuing independence above all else.
