Before joining Paper Street, Bingo produced the Emmy-nominated documentary BORN RICH, teaming up with renowned documentarian Jamie Johnson (THE ONE PERCENT). The film, which explores the lives of various children of the filthy rich, premiered at Sundance and was picked up by HBO, where it has aired ever since. Shortly after BORN RICH, Bingo left the film industry to produce music. He worked with legendary singer/songwriter Jimmy Buffett, among others, co-writing the hit song, “Conchy Tonk,” which was also the working title for Buffett’s 2004 LICENSE TO CHILL album. In its first week of release, LICENSE TO CHILL skyrocketed to #1 on the Billboard charts, knocking off Usher’s “Yeah!".
