Steeped in the ways of American roots and soul music, Red Wing, MN based singer/songwriter Tony Cuchetti breathes life into his songs in an honest, relatable fashion. His discovery of Country and Folk inspired his songwriting development, including embracing that moment of truth standing in front of an audience and hoping to make an impact. As Tony explains, “Music is so powerful in its effects on people. I think people, intrinsically, feel way more than they think they do or give themselves credit for.” Storytelling is key to Cuchetti’s way of writing, following in the footsteps of songwriters like Kris Kristofferson, Guy Clark, and Townes Van Zandt, who combined compelling details and situations with music that created a visceral emotional connection with their listeners. A working class musician who's lived through many of the topics he writes about. Growing up in a traveling musical family garnered him a multitude of creative experiences that helped shape his writing style and rustic soulful sound. Cuchetti continues to be a tireless gigging musician playing north of 200+ shows a year both solo and with his full band and has become a mainstay in the local Twin Cities and regional music scenes performing his "long in the tooth" brand of music and relatable stories. His authenticity is quickly realized by listeners fortunate enough to cross paths with him.
