VALDY

A cultural emissary, Valdy is one of Canada's trusted spokespersons, and a seasoned performer. Nearly thirty-seven years of relentless concert touring have made him so.

Valdy understands that people have come to be entertained; he tailors each of his shows, as many as 200 a year, to suit the audience at that specific venue.

His distinctive voice can be heard on classic, country and campus radio; songs reflecting joys, struggles and accomplishments in all our lives, spiced with a wry wit.

"I cut my teeth on Henry Mancini; he taught me about melody. Combine that with a fine groove, and the rest is window dressing." - Valdy

Guitarists pay attention to Valdy; his playing seems effortless, masking an underlying musical complexity; throughout the year, Valdy gives workshops on guitar accompaniment.

"One of the best evenings of entertainment Confederation Centre has ever seen … a man of formidable talents." - Charlottetown Evening Patriot.

"Valdy's show is a disarming and practical blend of respect for the audience and show business expertise." - the Edmonton Journal.
