Dominic Mancuso

A 2010 Juno Award winner, Dominic Mancuso is an acclaimed singer, songwriter and producer born in Toronto, Ontario. The multi-instrumentalist with an ‘impassioned singing style’ is defining a rich hybrid sound, fueled by the multicultural flavours of his native city, his versatile guitar playing and passion for world music. He reinvents classic Italian songs by breathing new life into them in imaginative ways and by merging the old world with the new.

His album has received critical acclaim, earning a 2010 Juno Award and a Canadian Folk Music Award for World Music Artist of the Year. Mancuso has produced and released several CDs, written scores for TV and film, and been involved in numerous musical and interdisciplinary collaborations with artists spanning the globe.

Mancuso is also co-founder of the groundbreaking musical production called MANCUSO2 with his brother Vince, a nationally recognized visual artist.

He is currently recording original, multi-lingual compositions to be released this fall.
