And, along with great friend Danny Velez, the ensemble Woodfellas Present -- Heaven Sent Instruments is making some noise in Syracuse.DI and Diablo, as they call themselves on stage, have added vocalist-keyboard player Elizabeth Canino, and drummer James Cage II. Ignacio's cousin, Shane Lostumbo -- who moved to Syracuse from Texas -- produces and adds electronic beats. Gerry Gutshall play bass, but is not featured in this video.The band visited The Post-Standard studio to play for the Music Notes Performance video series. They performed th emotional song, "I'm So Lost," a tribute that flowed out of Danny Ignacio and his band mates after his father, Sebastian Luiz Ignacio, suffered a stroke and passed away in May.Ignacio and Velez each wrote the lyrics they rap in the song, and Canino contributed the musical hooks.”
