With over 30 years of experience performing, composing, and entertaining live audiences, he brings a level of musical depth and professionalism that sets him apart in the live music scene. Since launching the Itt’z Cuzzen brand in 2012, he has built a reputation across Spokane and the Inland Northwest as a versatile and reliable performer who delivers a full-band experience through a unique solo looping setup.
Based in Spokane, Washington, Itt’z Cuzzen performs at weddings, corporate functions, private events, farmers markets, class reunions, and community gatherings.

The result is a live music experience that feels spontaneous, polished, and unforgettable.
The Story Behind the Name and the Music
The name Itt’z Cuzzen is more than a stage name — it’s a nod to community, connection, and relatability. The idea is simple: when you book Itt’z Cuzzen, it should feel like inviting family. You’re not hiring a distant, impersonal act. You’re bringing in someone who values connection, quality, and authenticity.
That approach shows in every performance. From intimate acoustic ceremonies to high-energy celebrations, Itt’z Cuzzen creates an atmosphere that feels personal and meaningful. Guests don’t just hear music. They feel it.
30+ Years of Experience On and Off Stage
Before forming Itt’z Cuzzen, the artist spent decades refining his craft. From small-town bars to large festival stages, from jam sessions to formal showcases, he gained deep experience not only as a performer, but also as a sound technician, songwriter, and event collaborator.
This depth of experience translates into a reliable, audience-aware performer who understands how to create a memorable event. It also means technical precision — from gear setup to sound balance — is never left to chance.
You get the musical talent, but also the behind-the-scenes expertise that ensures your event runs smoothly and professionally.
What Makes the Looping Setup Unique
Looping is a performance technique that uses live-recording equipment to build songs in layers. Itt’z Cuzzen performs each musical part one at a time, recording and repeating them in real time to build a full arrangement as the audience watches.
Here’s what happens during a looping performance:
- A beat is tapped out on a percussion pad or guitar body and recorded
- A bassline is layered over the beat
- Guitar chords and melodies are added
- Vocals, harmonies, and hooks are introduced
- Each layer plays back in perfect sync, creating a full-band sound
This setup allows one musician to sound like many, but it also opens the door to creative freedom. Every loop is built live, which means every performance is different. Songs can be extended, shortened, remixed, or blended with others based on the vibe in the room.
Looping is both a technical art and a creative challenge. It requires a precise sense of timing, musicality, and improvisation. It also allows Itt’z Cuzzen to tailor each performance on the fly, adapting instantly to audience energy, song requests, and event flow.
