Cooley writes, performs, and produces all of the music under the Mesita moniker himself. The project began in 2008 when he released the debut album Cherry Blossoms. He released the album Here's To Nowhere in 2011 and The Coyote the following year. 2013 saw the release of the fourth full-length Mesita album Future Proof.[1]

Mesita is featured on episodes of Skins (North American TV series)[2] as well as Mistresses (U.S. TV series).[3] The track "Somewhere Else" is featured on the first compilation from popular YouTube music channel Majestic Casual.[4]

In 2020, Mesita contributed production with Monte Booker for the song "Judas" (with JID featuring Ari Lennox, Buddy, Chance the Rapper and Masego) on the album Spilligion by American hip hop collective Spillage Village.[5]
