Anthony Casuccio is a New York-based artist, guitarist, and thrice Grammy-nominated producer with over thirty years of industry expertise. To say he knows his craft inside and out would barely be scratching the surface of his musical career, but it’s only recently that Anthony decided to unleash some music of his own. He ended last year with three highly successful singles including ‘Into the Light’, ‘Life Goes On’, and ‘The Rockstar’, and it’s the latter of the three I’d like to hone in on today.
Demonstrating his exceptional guitar-playing prowess, Casuccio delivers a dynamic and forceful rock ‘n’ roll anthem. Dripping with the spirit of 70s and 80s rock legends, it’s a tune celebrating Anthony’s longevity in the music industry, a feat that’s rare in today’s ever-changing musical landscape.
“I wanted to showcase my guitar playing,” says Anthony. “I pulled licks from some of my favourite rock guitarists and came up with this fast-paced thrill ride of a song that’s fun to play”.
Serving as both a testament to Casuccio’s songwriting and storytelling abilities, ‘The Rockstar’ is actually the perfect track in many ways. Expertly assembled and filled with tons of heart, it finds the sweet spot between technical skill and raw emotion.
