Mario Cuomo

Mario Cuomo is best known as frontman of Chicago rock band The Orwells, and has recently delved into the world of home recording. His latest release, End Times, is the first collection of songs he has written and recorded entirely independently.

In this interview we discuss the challenges and advantages of self-releasing, finding inspiration and healthful coping strategies in tough times, what it was like touring alongside bands like Pixies and Weezer, and more...

The Orwells currently have a fifth studio album fully recorded that is pending release.

Special thanks to Mario for being kind enough to sit down with me for this interview!
