"...it was the outstanding piano work of Dominic Fallacaro that elicited the most enthusiasm from the audience. Whether introducting “My Romance” in a gentle solo setting or raging through the percussive storm of “Caravan”, Fallacaro revealed impressive technique and well-developed improvisational skills." - Chuck Obuchowski, Hartford Courant

At only 22 years of age, Dominic Fallacaro is becoming one of the most in demand pianists on the New York scene today. Already headlining with his own groups throughout the city, Dominic has appeared at the Iridium, Dizzys Club – Lincoln Center, and Sweet Rhythm. His compositions have been featured on the radio, and Dominic recently performed live on WBGO's “Afternoon Jazz” segment.

Hailing from upstate New York, Dominic was selling out venues while still in high school. He headlined the historic Van Dyck, playing to standing-room only crowds, along with playing famous venues like Caffe Lena, and WAMC studios.

Recently, Dominic has been hard at work on his debut album, recorded with his quintet in Brooklyn. The CD will feature Dominic's original compositions, and will be followed up with a Live DVD shot while in the Studio. Dominic has thrilled audiences, playing with Jazz legend Kevin Mahogany, and vocalist Freddie Cole. He has toured the country playing with many artists of all styles, playing everything from the famous Whiskey A Go Go in Los Angeles, to playing the Delano in Miami.

With a huge range, impressive technique, and extensive song catalog, expect big things from Dominic in the near future. His first CD is due this Summer. Recently, Dominic has been playing with DUET , a 3 piece Dance Band, which has been taking New York by storm.

Influences:
Herbie Hancock, Brian Wilson, Pharrell
