American singer-songwriter Bruce Sudano has a storied history in the world of music. Born & raised in Brooklyn, NY, his unique journey includes an early songwriting mentorship from Tommy James (the pair co-wrote the 1969 hit "Ball of Fire" for James’ band The Shondells), co-founding two groups in the ‘70’s, Alive 'N Kickin' & Brooklyn Dreams, who both scored Billboard charting songs (“Tighter, Tighter” & “Heaven Knows” respectively), & seeing his work recorded by iconic artists like Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire (both with “Starting over Again”) & Michael & Jermaine Jackson (“Tell Me I’m Not Dreaming”). But his most fruitful association dates from 1977 when Bruce began working with Donna Summer, co-writing her smash hit “Bad Girls”, & developing what became a 3+ decade musical partnership & marriage, until her passing from cancer in 2012. This tragedy started Bruce on a new journey, writing, recording & touring for himself, releasing 6 albums & numerous singles throughout the past decade. Bruce’s musical capabilities blend philosophical, spiritual, love, and social consciousness ideas, expressing internal challenges from everyday life & songs dispatched from the heart, with exquisite story telling. His life and his stories continue in his recent album Talkin' Ugly Truth, Tellin' Pretty Lies, diving into every stage of life, from the exhilaration of youth through the maze of love, loss, & lessons learned, ending with what it all means & where the journey leads from there.
