John Fuzek

VOTE HERE: http://www.vmassociates.com/motifmusicawards08.htmJOHN FUZEK (rhymes with music) has been performing his own style of music, either solo or as part of a duo, around the Northeast and various points of the US for many years. He began by performing the typical “cover-song/bar-gigs” but soon moved up to performing only his own original music. In 1989, he teamed up with Mary Ann Rossoni and formed the duo Fuzek•Rossoni. The duo quickly gained a large following and garnered quite a bit of success in the seven years they performed together. During what was supposed to be a “short hiatus” from performing, John produced the Hear In Rhode Island Festival for many years, showcases and workshops for the Rhode Island Songwriters Association (www.risongwriters.com), worked with other festivals, helped produce a few CDs by other artists, hung out with his dogs; and yes, even wrote and recorded songs for a couple of compilation CDs. John Fuzek is now back and performing as a solo act. His first solo, full length CD, “A Dog’s Age”, was released in May 2004. Recorded in March 2004, it is a collection of songs that reflect John’s passions, experiences and concerns. “A Dog’s Age”, was chosen by the Providence Phoenix as one of the BEST ACOUSTIC CDs in RI of 2004. John is currently working on his second solo CD and it should be released sometime in late 2005. John Fuzek twice won the honored Best Male Vocalist category in the Providence Phoenix (RI’s Largest Entertainment Weekly) Best Music Poll. Fuzek•Rossoni captured the Best New Local Act, Best CD/Tape and Best Song Categories. In September 2003, John was named one of RI’s “Most Influential People in the Arts” by the Providence Phoenix. “A Dog’s Age”, was chosen by the Providence Phoenix as one of the BEST ACOUSTIC CDs in RI of 2004. In 2005 he was nominated in the Best Folk Act category of the Providence Phoenix Best Music Poll. Currently, in addition to performing, John is a columnist for the Providence, RI based entertainment magazine/newspaper, "Motif".
