Fite's appeal is not in his talent with instruments, but of his uncanny ability to co-opt the work of others and turn it into something wholly and unusually his own. His latest album "Gone Ain't Gone" was mainly sampled and looped from a variety of found and forgotten CD's, overlaid with the resonant and disturbing lyrical musings of Fite's bloodless heart.

Songs performed: "Shake 'em Down," "No Good Here," and "Medicine."
