David Vidal

"David Vidal rules Americana." (Mary Coppin, multi-award winning singer/songwriter) "David Vidal owes me twenty bucks." (Anonymous) "Vidal's tunes capture the essence of that raw to the bone blues soul out of the past while at the same time spinning some elevated consciousness from the likes of Lao Tzu and Carlos Castaneda inside the notes." (Independent Review) Born in the high desert town of Gallup, New Mexico, David Vidal was raised by a pack of degenerate coyotes who abandoned him wearing nothing but swaddling clothes behind a bar in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. Vidal has had songs sung by America and Vince Gill, and worked with Gene Clark, Joe Walsh, Harry Maslin and other musical luminaries. Jackson Browne once gave him half a chicken sandwich. He has tunes in numerous movies and television shows, including My Cousin Vinnie and Friday Night Lights. "His delivery evokes unspoken feelings as his audience affirms the depth of the emotion he has touched in them. You see it in the way they rock and close their eyes and look triumphant when they come to the other side. This is man's music, that makes it okay to cry in front of your girlfriend." (Jungle Beat Magazine) "He don't suck." (The bouncer at the Boom Boom Room)
