Artist History I've been writing songs for nearly two years, but have only recently started to record them. Be there on time is my first recording from late '99. Buena Vista smokers club was conceived in the Summer sun of Leeds, May 2000. No Worries Mate! is the result of avoiding my finals revision, and Join Together is what I'm perhaps most proud of to date.
