Since 1999, Mr. T-bone has been a member of the BlueBeaters and Africa Unite, which are two of the most influential ska and reggae bands in Italy.  
During that same year he founded the Jamaican Liberation Orchestra,  
the first Italian ska-jazz band and recorded the album “THAT’S IT!” (2002).  
He then composed and interpreted the soundtrack for the movie “Ravanello Pallido” which was a great success in Italy.
