Change Of Structure has excelled at creating original acoustic rock which offers melodic guitar hooks, poetic vocals, moving bass lines and an enduring rhythm.  In the realm of music, Change Of Structure displays passion that demands the attention of a variety of listeners as they are unafraid to express their true essence of ingenuity and style.

A decade ago, Change Of Structure began as most ventures do - by accident.   An unpredictable chain of events led four characters with very different personal and musical backgrounds to come together. This Northern New Jersey based band is the collaborative effort of John Fredericka (vocals/guitars), Mike Russomanno (guitars/vocals), Chuck Friedrich (bass/vocals) and Jason Stauss (drums/guitars/vocals).  Two members of Change Of Structure (Fredericka and Friedrich) were record-label prospects with former bands, respectively.   Their diversity is evident in their collection of songs that have been influenced by numerous artists from different musical genres.  Change Of Structure prides itself on creating a unique sound, while paying homage to the artists that have influenced them. 

Whatever direction Change Of Structure travels, they bring an invigorating approach to contemporary music. Their live presence and performance is an excellent fuse between original music and cover songs that appeal to a broad audience.  Their poise and professionalism are just some of the characteristics that make Change Of Structure what they are - dynamic.

Chuck has been performing and experimenting with his bass playing for quite sometime.  His eclectic style of writing music keeps the band fresh, rhythmic and locked down.  His flow is steady, natural and strong which provides an awesome undertow keeping the band in the same circle. 

Jason adds a variety of layers to the band, contributing with percussion and strings.  His approach to music is pure, and his creativity displays that by the output of energy he adds to the band.  With his many talents, his catchy and straight forward delivery are what make him unique.

John has a passionate, poetic approach to vocals.  With a strong and confident voice, he continues to be weave words and verbally narrate the bands evolution.  If his writing and lyrics do not offer the conviction of a person forever married to music, his delivery will.

Mike works his guitar as an extension of his body and mind.  He links the bands music together with a ferocious yet focused proclivity for creating music.  Not afraid of  of experimenting with various styles on guitar, Mike continues to stay progressive and ahead of the game.
