PRESS

“Hard Riffs displays soaring guitar solos with solid backing bass lines and easy to understand lyrics sung by an even easier to get behind lead singer; Mancuso himself. It takes me back to the fond days of my childhood sitting in the garage with my father listening to his favorite songs by the bands who dominated the airways of his youth; such as Huey Lewis and the News, Duran Duran, Europe, the Dave Matthews Band, the Animals, and the Cult.”

— Track Rambler

The Hard Riffs is the solo project of Austin, TX based musical artist Michael Mancuso. Carefully crafted songwriting featuring catchy riffs and soaring guitar solos, Mancuso takes listeners on a journey from retro rock to modern alternative sounds. Setlist: 1. Hey Mama 2. Stand Alone 3.
