Smith Stevens

... a nimble wee thing...

About Me

I made my myspace layout using Pimp-My-Profile.com

Smith Steven has just finished a wee 8 track album - tracks should appear on here in an irregular fashion. Please let him know what you think. He has buggered off to the US of A for 6 months so you can be as honest as you like. A saxophone student at Ian Tomlin School of Music in Edinburgh and now in Mansfield Uni in Pennsylvania, he shall be gigging it up soon - on whichever side of the Atlantic will let him. x
