Tony: Lead vocalist, songwriter, frontman, and a true son of Leeds, a larger than life character full of charismatic charm with a voice that will blow your socks off!
A true entertainer on all levels
Tim Atack a killer on the ivories with a real flair for style, his experience and talents run for miles and miles . . .with production and hit writing credits with stars like Des'ree
Keith Atack guitar, just back from touring with Bonnie Tyler now shifts direction to support Jensen at his HOB gig
Nick - Bassist: a player who's funkier than a block of stale cheese. Along with JP, he is the backbone of the band, playing with Terminator-esque precision and efficiency. He likes to start the day with Weetabix and end it with a bucket of Leffe. He has so much sexy love to give... but not on Mondays - 'things' don't work quite as well as they do on other days...
JP: Drummer, last but not least the flailing arms which make up John Paul, half man half octopus he is the drum king of the North, constantly keeping lifes rhythm. Thoroughly entertaining to watch, lives only to hit things with sticks!

Stevie Wonder, Terence Trent D'arby, Ray La Montagne, Mashall Altman, Karen Poole, Sacha Skarbek, Stephan Skarbek

Singer/Songwriter Jensen is set to launch as one of the hottest new UK hot AC artists, watch this space for news.
"I've been writing songs from an early age Jensen says " but apart from the usual teenage angst there wasnt really a lot to tell" , " but now with a few more years under my belt, I find theres more stuff to write about " the more you get screwed over in life, the more there is to say about it !
This is an uneasy time right now in the music biz, so many different directions to go and take, and more than ever music seems to be ruled by reality TV, and sugar sweet pop !
Jensens debut album due to be finalised spring 2008 is filled with great organic live music with real players, real songs, and real dedication, music lovers will wonder where this gem has been hiding, Jensen has it all, slammin songs, amazing vocals, and real honest music,
Just spent the best week ever in LA at Galt line Studio's recording with the maestro Marshall Altman and his partner Eric Robinson,
what a team !!! and what a studio, absolutely fkn amazing !!!
Apart from the two slammin tracks that I came away with, "Someone Like Me" and "Rainbow" I learned so much from these guys,
just cant wait to go back !! but in the meantime thanks a million to both of ya

I nicked/borrowed this quote from Stef Skarbeks page . . . . . . .
"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."
ha ha ha ! this guy has vision, why da hell do we do it !!
Plans for 2008 . . looking to co-write as much as possible
I finally finished up a project I have been working on closely with my homie DJ Trippin' over the past few months. The idea was to take a handful of my freestyles, studio tracks, and b-sides I've recorded over the last year and combine them all to a 1 track mix. All mixing, scratching, and juggling was performed by DJ Trippin'. The effort is available for high quality download by clicking the cover below!

Honest songwriting filled with powerful and thought provoking lyrics. Blues and Gypsy influenced Rock music with vintage feel, yet an original and innovative style and sound. -It's music you like.
