Cuco
Omar Banos, known professionally as Cuco, is an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Hawthorne, California. Teaching himself music production, he self-released his first EP, Wannabewithu in 2016, which featured his viral hits "Lover is a Day" and "Amor de Siempre", followed by his second EP, Songs4u, the next year. His breakthrough came with the 2017 single "Lo Que Siento," allowing him to leave college to pursue music full-time. After signing with Interscope Records in 2019, he released his debut studio album, Para Mi. His sophomore album, Fantasy Gateway, produced by Manuel Lara, arrived in 2022, earning praise from Pitchfork for its "newfound shine." In November 2023, he released the Hitchhiker EP. In early 2025, Cuco released "ICNBYH" ("I can never break your heart"), a dreamy, romantic single drawing from Southern California's Chicano Soul scene. The track, produced by Tom Brenneck (known for work with Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars), features Alex Garcia, Sal Samano of Thee Sacred Souls, and The Roots' Dave Guy and Ian Hendrickson-Smith. Brenneck, whose credits include Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Charles Bradley, The Budos Band, and Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black," brings his signature vintage-meets-contemporary production style to the song. Cuco's artistry bridges cultures and generations, exploring various musical eras while addressing universal themes of love and heartache.
