When Jesse was thirteen years old his brother, Aaron Sprinkle, sixteen at the time, asked him to play drums in their band. Jeremy Enigk shared vocals, but would later leave to form the legendary Sunny Day Real Estate. Three years later Jesse s band, Poor Old Lu, signed to Alarma Records, and the Sprinkle brothers began touring full-time. Four full-lenth studio albums and an EP were released within a short period of four years before Poor Old Lu broke up in 1997 when Jesse was 21. Aaron Sprinkle continued on with his project-turned-band Rose Blossom Punch, and began his veritable career as a producer. A new young band called Magnified Plaid, MXPX, as Aaron to produce their debut album for Tooth and Nail Records. Several years later Aaron Sprinkle was hired by Tooth and Nail to produce their artists at the Compound Recording Studio. Aaron also found time to release six solo albums between 1999 and 2004, as well as recording a new Poor Old Lu album in 2002. Aaron has produced or engineered artists such as Pedro the Lion, Rocky Votolato, The Almost, Eisley, Mae, Starflyer 59, Damien Jurado, Deftones, Anberlin, and many others. In 1996 Jesse Sprinkle recorded a classical guitar instrumental album called Sunsites, with Phil Peterson backing him on cello. After Poor Old Lu broke up Jesse began releasing acoustic-driven solo albums under the name The World Inside, where Jesse tracked every instrument, and three albums were released through Organic and Paste. In 1998 Sprinkle began producing and engineering in his Mackie studio in Danville, New York, but had difficulty due to his relentless touring. Jesse Sprinkle is most notably renown as Demon Hunter s drummer, whose music videos were cast in heavy rotation on MTV.
