Black Pig

Black Pig is a true musical experiment. In fall 2004, longtime friends Wayne Daren Schneiderman and Joseph Milazzo began a recording project that broke away from the norm and challenged them as artists. The idea was to convene once a week and record an original song. Each song was to be written and recorded in one session -- no exceptions. Working under a time limit forced the two writers to break down their inhibitions and let the spirit of the moment dictate the course of the songwriting. The end product was released in July 2005 under the title "It Is What It Is," a very fitting title if there ever was one. Seventy copies of the album were made and given out to friends.
Shortly thereafter, indie label Bald Freak Music happened to stumble upon Black Pig's music and approached the band with sincere interest in promoting and distributing their album. In response to this unexpected interest, Schneiderman and Milazzo began to assemble the pieces so that Black Pig could be realized as a full band and a live experience.

Fronted by Schneiderman on lead vocals and percussion, and Milazzo, also on lead vocals and bass, the Black Pig family has now grown to include drummer John Clemente, and guitarists Anthony Navarro and Barry Dobrin. Now a fully functional unit, Black Pig is ready to take on the world ... but is the world ready for BLACK PIG?
