Amazing vocalist... the tracks came out as planned... better than that. Great guy to work with... will work with again, I hope.
I have funded a job with the guy and he just disappeared without informing me, whether he could finally deliver the job or not. He rarely answered to my messages and when he did it, I got a lot of excuses that the work would be delivered "the next day". That day never came.
