Just to let you know that we've finished the recordings and that - after an exciting time of becoming a father of a beautiful girl - new inspiration and energy is growing...
"After 4 years playing with The May Bees, I have decided to move on. I would like to thank everyone who supported us thru this years and a very special thanks goes to Gregory, from whom I learned so much and who has always shown so much patience and understanding.
I wish the band all the best and luck in the world!"
