After a literal changing of his voice, John Vento has shifted gears with his new project.

With the task of producing and releasing a song a month, Vento's "Brick by Brick" album is building from the ground up. He has several singles out already, including "New Mexico Way" with an accompanying music video,

Vento's voice grew deeper in the past few years after a few incidents caused some damage to his vocal cords. A retrained voice and a new way of using it has given him a new sound and a new way to look at his music.

On top of this, Vento currently helps with an Autism charity "Band Together" out of Pittsburgh that does regular concerts and events.

We talked to Vento about his thought processes making music, his charity, and his goals in 2021.
