Joe Cerisano

Joe Cerisano launched his professional performing career at fourteen and has since become one of American music’s most in-demand singer/songwriter producers. The West Virginia native co-founded the California ’80s rock band Silver Condor alongside Earl Slick, once David Bowie’s guitarist, while also working as a studio session singer, recording vocals for television and radio commercials, and serving as a backing vocalist for Michael Bolton. He has additionally performed with Blue Öyster Cult, Gloria Estefan, Placido Domingo, and Richie Havens. In 1990, Cerisano and songwriting partner Marc Blatte started developing Carbon Copy, which they later tracked in New York City, New Jersey, and Nashville. Further evidence of his lasting demand arrived in 1999 when he supplied vocals for the alternative metal band Korn on their Issues album.
