| Bonzai Scores Grammy with Stephen Marley | |
Congratulations are in order for our friend and colleague, James "Bonzai" Caruso as he has just received his third Grammy award.

Stephen was working in our Studio 7 with Bonzai for a few sessions, last year. We wish Bonzai the best in his new endeavor in Las Vegas.
