Kori Gardner and Jason Hammel are kindred souls with a completely open-minded approach to music, combining their talents and vision under the name of Mates of State.

This American couple have five albums under their belt, demonstrating their staying-power and quest for increasingly effusive pop sounds brimming with lush details and skill on all of their releases: “My Solo Project” (2000), “Our Constant Concern” (2002), “Team Boo” (2003), “Bring It Back” (2006) and their most recent “Re-Arrange Us” (2008).
