Giacomo Cuticchio was born in Palermo, in 1982. He is a composer, a pianist and has his roots in one of the strongest and liveliest Sicilian theatrical traditions.
Son and grandson of puppet masters, his artistic training took place among chivalric dreams, lost and adventurously recovered minds, battles and reigning kings, passions and morality. It also resides firmly within a frame of extreme rigidity and attention to details that is so characteristic of the theatrical activity of his family.
Little Giacomo's inclination to music found very fertile ground in the sounds of the barrel-piano in the puppet theatre. This instrument traditionally accompanies the events of the Paladins of France, and the extraordinary and precious vocal gymnastics peculiar to the "Opra" and the "Cunto".
By chance, Giacomo discovered Philip Glass' music at a very young age, and this, coupled with his lasting attraction to early music from the Renaissance and Baroque eras, showed him the way forward. They constituted ideal foundations for his research into the roots of music, along the same lines as his father Mimmo’s previous innovations on the basis of the Opra.
Going beyond solely linguistic rules in music, Giacomo Cuticchio searches for immediacy of emotion, looking for the most suitable forms in structural, archetypal plots: Giacomo's music comes directly from the heart of the mechanisms that rule the working of the forms.
So much attention to the ultimate principles linked to the birth of the music brings with it an interest for the sound, in its own right and in relationship to human existence, constantly fed by live improvisation on a musical instrument.
There is no doubt that Giacomo Cuticchio's extraordinary intuition for sound has been influenced by the practice of cunto. Giacomo’s father Mimmo, pupil of the master-puppet and cuntista Peppino Celano, is one of its last true heirs. As in the cunto where the word becomes sung by the rhythmic distortion of the breath, setting free its musical soul, Giacomo's music creates the same natural sounds and brings them alive.
Here we can find the origin of the young Cuticchio's love for minimalism, this last "ism" whose attention to sound isn't superficial, as some narrow-minded critics, hostile to new categories and inventiveness, would make us believe.
This is the thread that ties together the tradition Giacomo Cuticchio is heir to, and musical modernity, harmonizing the breath and the word, the sound and the composition, transporting and soothing the mind through the sound of an ancient barrel piano.
According to the rhythm of a human existence that is still possible.

Onde sonore lisergiche si diffondono lungo i Viali della Fantasia. Benvenuti nel magico e psichedelico mondo Pivirama, ovvero la visione - o allucinazione rock  - della songwriter palermitana di nascita e Raffaella Daino. 

Del terzo album Fantasy lane scrivono: "La giusta sintesi tra sensualità, tecnica, istinto animale." "Un piccolo miracolo di composizione: orecchiabile, ipnotico, seducente." "Straordinariamente culturale, spalanca l'ascolto, sottomettendolo." "Affascinante e oscuro, scarno ed e fficace. Un vortice di cupa bellezza.." Un mondo completamente fluttuante in mezzo a sonorità psichedeliche, ma nel quale si subisce contemporaneamente l’urto di vibrazioni rock." Di In My Mind, il 2' lavoro: "Atmosfere ipnotico – psicotiche- psichedeliche da 4 del mattino" (XL Repubblica). 

E sul palco, risalendo l'Italia da sud a nord, anche a fianco di Afterhours, Patty Pravo, Cristina Dona’, Mario Venuti, Africa Unite, Giorgio Canali. Nel 2012 un mini tour in UK e nel 2013 anche nel carcere Rebibbia.
