    Artist History
    Way back in time, before the discovery of cyberspace, Bazuzu slogged round the circuit, from the nightclubs of Bournemouth to the village halls of deepest Dorset (U.K.), playing three minute pop songs to a mixture of disbelieving and disinterested rednecks and no-hopers. True to tradition, it wasn't long before the band became disillusioned and disintigrated. Singer,bass player, Roj Agogo then did a career swerve. He reinvented himself as a street musician in the South of France, playing the restaurant terraces and the slow trains from Cannes to Nice. This melancholy but inspirational period yielded a wealth of new material. For the purposes of converting these little gems from scraps of paper into something more concrete, Bazuzu was reincarnated, this time as a mutant, four headed monster. Using the notorious 'Band in a Bedroom' technique, two CDs were created, 'Disconnected' and 'Skeletons In The Cupboard'. The latter featured the gorgeous 'Lucy Liu' and the wicked 'Minka'. End of story.
