SimpleMission

Now, after many years of his role as Lead guitar/ songwriter , Cosimo has decided to make the transition to singer/songwriter enabling him to express his writings without compromising feel or direction. Keeping true to his beliefs, he demonstrates time after time that a good song can be expressed and effective even in its rawest form of acoustic and vocal. For Cosimo, his vision for SIMPLE MISSION was to define musical success simply by writing, performing and sharing songs with an audience or listener. With a growing demand to take these songs beyond the acoustic platform, SIMPLE MISSION has expanded to include Adrian DeLellis on Bass guitar and Sam Mammone on Drums. The addition of this veteren rythym section has allowed the project to cover all industry demands and expectations.

Cosimo has been a third party to the Canadian Cancer Society for a year now where he generously donates partial proceeds from CD sales as well as donating his time performing at various fundraisers.
