PINO FARINA

...till the sky can't shed no more tears

About Me

.. Pino Farina for the last several years has performed and written high energy rock music all over the country with the band DEARBORN and is now proud to bring you his more personal side. The trials and tribulations of life have lead Pino as a singer songwriter, to capture a level of maturity in his music and lyrics, as well as an urgent sense of something special. The music speaks for itself, so please take a listen and enjoy.

"If Dave Matthews begat John Mayer, Mayer begat Dearborn. But where Mayer added little to Matthews' not particularly original formula, Dearborn are a force from which Mayer, and mature rock artists in general, could take notes. Should the group continue to deliver as they have so far, it's only a matter of time before they're drawing attention away from Mayer and the like."
