Brown the CousCous is a band formed by Wayne Ulanski, soon after the release of his album “Another Passin’ By”, and has evolved to serve as a platform for some of the area’s best musicians.   Featuring a catalog of both cover and original music their performances today highlight some of their best works and plenty of crowd-pleasers.  Emerging from the bustling music scene in Long Beach, Brown the CousCous has performed at many venues in the Southland.

Since the Covid lockdown, they have been performing for their neighborhood and are currently in the studio with plans to release their next album.  Their slogan, “Cool Songs Done Cool” came from a comment made by a fan during one of their shows. “This really stuck with us”, said Wayne “and we go out each and every night doing the best we can to keep music an important part of life.” 

The band features:
- Daniel Mancuso, a stellar horn player who applies a lifetime of performance experience to make every show a wonderful celebration of song.
- Jen Ford is our percussionist and will be playing the cajon along with her backup vocals.
- Scott Salmon, a remarkable keyboardist, composer and arranger.
- Jay Saldana on bass.
- Wayne is the lead singer, songwriter, and the designated hauler of gear.
