My name is John Cusimano. I have been writing songs since the 1980's. Much of my writing has been done in collaboration with a long time friend, John Fracchia and recorded by our band, Loose Change (www.broadjam.com/loosechange). I also have collaborated with lyricists and other composers through an group of songwriters called the Songwriters Gang (www.songwritersgang.com).
My music crosses a variety of different genres such as pop rock, ballads, country, classic rock, contemporary christian, etc.
Although widely varied, my music always features solid, catchy melodies with strong hooks.
Early influences were Elton John and The Beatles. More recent influences include Sting, U2, Crowded House, Squeeze, REM, The Rembrandts, John Mayer.
