American Idle-Johnny CuomoParadiddle Records (2007)
The New CD from Johnny Cuomo, American Idle, featuring Johnny on guitar, mandolin and vocals, and Dan Lowery on guitar and vocals. Johnny unveils some great new songs played in his unique style. When you listen to American Idle it sounds like Johnny and Dan are playing right there in your living room. From the opening track "Try, Try, Try" all the way through to "Songs from Paul" Johnny's vocals lure the listener in to share Johnny's stories and his view of the world around him. Dan Lowery's guitar adds just the right amount of complexity to the songs without moving the music away from its roots: A thoroughly enjoyable listen from beginning to end.
American Idle is a clever, and introspective, collection of music that both entertains and begs the listener to look a little deeper into what we might call 'the stuff around us.' You could not expect anything less with a disc title that plays parody on the wildly popular musical talent show 'American Idol.'
Cuomo can also be found on Paradiddle Record's May 2006 release of Bob Dylan Uncovered, with his captivating rendition of 'Boots of Spanish Leather' and the November 2006 release of Happy Holidays from Paradiddle Records, with his Irish flavored acoustic version of 'Silent Night' on guitar and penny whistle.
Johnny Cuomo has a rich past in the music business. Most recently he performed at the IMAC Theater, in Huntington, NY, as a featured act in the Bob Dylan Uncovered CD Concert. From there he performed in Patchogue, NY, on the same bill as Drew Olsen, in the 'Live in the Lobby' series in the Patchogue Theater. Cuomo was so well receive that this performance set a new attendance record for this venue! Yet another Cuomo accomplishment!
As you begin to explore the Cuomo collection you will hear influences not commonly heard in most performers. He initially began his public musical career as the front man and guitarist for Voice of the Turtle: a successful rock band that played such well known venues as CBGB. The band's CD As Is Live did quite well as an independently released disc. His venture into traditional Irish music proved very successful both here and abroad. Cuomo was a celebrated act in major venues in Ireland, most notably the city of Dublin itself! He was a featured act and billed with such notables as Australian guitarist Tommy Emmanuel and Dublin's own well known band 'Whirlygig'. In the recent past, Cuomo has taken a more focused, personal perspective to his music performing solo or, with select accompaniment, as with Don Lowery on American Idle.
Johnny Cuomo continues to be an enjoyable musician and venerable talent. His melodic and intricate songs stand on their own. His 'Dylanesque' voice follows the tradition of Roger McGuinn and Tom Petty, in capturing the essential emotion of the American musical spirit from its core beginnings to it present considerations. And when you find yourself not listening to, but becoming part of Cuomo's music you will understand why he continues to entertain, and perhaps enthrall, his many fans.
We, at Paradiddle Records, are pleased to offer Johnny Cuomo's music as a solo artist and in assembly with talent of similar character. Please enjoy what his many fans have enjoyed for so long. |

Bob Dylan Uncovered |
Paradiddle Records (2006)
Bob Dylan Uncovered "easily ranks as one of the best collections ever of Bob Dylan songs by artists other than Dylan", Steve Matteo. Good Times Magazine calls it "a classic record that will be played and talked about for years to come" and "as close to sheer perfection as any locally produced CD we've ever heard. Not a bad song, note or moment on it". . Read the latest review in Good Times Magazine or hear for yourself.
Bob Dylan Uncovered - chock full of unique interpretations of some of Dylan's most interesting songs. Our challenge to the artists was simply stated: Take a Bob Dylan song and make it your own. The arrangements could go where ever their sound took them. The proof that these artists rose to this challenge is evident on these tracks. Also be sure to check out the Bob Dylan Uncovered Bonus disc which includes three additional Bob Dylan cover tracks and some great original songs from the Paradiddle Records library of artists.
