Description

Hayden Pedigo & Mason Lindahl - Live at The Echo Bridge The Echo Bridge Appreciation Society is proud to welcome Hayden Pedigo and Mason Lindahl to the Echo Bridge on May 1st. Both experimental guitar composers, this promises to be a show that will celebrate their talents while putting a spotlight on the amazing acoustics and beautiful setting of the Echo Bridge as the sun sets over the San Antonio River. The only thing you can ever really expect from Hayden Pedigo is the unexpected. The son of a truck stop preacher, raised and home-schooled in a "super religious family" (his own words), the acoustic guitarist and soundscape composer from Amarillo, Texas, has an unlikely origin story. After releasing a series of solo albums, the most unanticipated plot twist in his multiverse came in 2019 with an endearing bid for Amarillo City Council at the age of 25, following his Harmony Korine-inspired spoof campaign video that went viral. The whole story was brought to the big screen in Jasmine Stodel’s 2021 SXSW-premiering documentary Kid Candidate, which followed Pedigo on the campaign trail as he became the unsuspecting folk hero in a hopeful tale of integrity, corruption, and small city politics. In November, the unexpected happened again when Pedigo made his runway debut in Gucci’s 100th anniversary fashion show, Love Parade, in Los Angeles. He modelled their Spring-Summer 2022 collection alongside fellow musicians St Vincent, Phoebe Bridgers, and Steve Lacy. At the echo Bridge, Pedigo will be playing compositions from his newest album, Letting Go, which takes open-hearted moments of solitude, confusion, longing, and acceptance and sends them skywards, where they refract and sun dance into our ears. Like William Tyler, Marisa Anderson, Chuck Johnson or any of the new wave of guitarists altering the very DNA of American guitar music for a new generation, Pedigo’s songs aren’t so much here to bring you into his world as to illuminate and color your own. https://www.texasmonthly.com/arts-entertainment/hayden-pedigo-letting-go-album-amarillo/ Mason Lindahl is a guitarist and songwriter from Sacramento, California. Prominently known for his unique fingerstyle of guitar playing. Mason has been compared guitarist and songwriters such as John Fahey, Leonard Cohen and James Blackshaw. With music released on Porter Records, Para-sight Records, and Lifes Blood[2] Recordings. Lindahl finds peace in nuance and finds more in less. Finding calm in calamity became the inspiration for his latest record, Kissing Rosy in the Rain, which features loud, high intensity arpeggios and long obvious pauses laying the ground for a climactic and visceral experience. https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/mason-lindahl-kissing-rosy-in-the-rain/ This promises to be a beautiful sunset show under the bridge and you are invited.
