Carl Lorusso Jr.

“There’s a definite hint of Leonard Cohen about Lorusso’s songwriting and indeed about the sound of his voice. The depth and the emotion, the delicacy and the grit, all work smoothly together to give the story-lines a certain weight and authority that leaves you hanging on every moment.
Carl Lorusso Jr. has that special something that music fans have missed lately – this organic, soulful, natural ability to embrace and entrance the listener. Feeling all at once familiar and fresh, the songs brighten your view of modern music and remind you of the wonder that still well and truly exists.”
-Rebecca Cullen, Stereo Stickman

Reviews for the album <a href="spotify:album:2x7ljcnkeJOZ5c0ajYvp4g" data-name="Murder Tools">Murder Tools</a> (2018);

““Murder Tools” is a collection of songs that will delight all music lovers. In each song, Lorusso explores a facet of life, a life challenge that can only be conveyed through expertly woven poetry. Combined with toe thumping guitar playing, and the occasional accompaniment, the songs on Murder Tools are irresistible.”
-Samantha Stevens, The Littlest Voice

“Carl Lorusso’s newest album is brilliant, experimental, and raw… “Murder Tools” is an example of contemporary exploration and independent honesty.”
-Kyle Alvey, Audible Addixion
