Hey,
I found you on Jamie Oliver..s website, and I..m really impressed by you music! How..s it going?
I..m an artist & label agent at Mubito which represent among others Madonna, Ace of Base, Brownpunk and Sony/BMG on internet and are part of their digital strategy.
I would like to discuss, if we could do something for you. Who is responsible?
Cheers!
