Musician/Record Producer
Fernando Perdomo (10:15 Slot)
Fernando Jose Perdomo (born August 17, 1980) is an American musician best known for his work as a producer and session bassist and guitarist. He is best known as one of the guitarists in the movie Echo in the Canyon, where he backed up Jakob Dylan, Fiona Apple, Beck, Norah Jones, Regina Spektor, Brian Wilson, and Cat Power.
He is currently on tour with Marshall Crenshaw on lead guitar. His newest album is called "Self" which is out on Spirit of Unicorn/Cherry Red Records. The album has already received acclaim!
Fernando Perdomo goes for a baroque psychedelic pop playfulness with “Self.” Nods to Todd Rundgren and the Kinks, right down to the delirium he conjures up, add to the inherent charm of the album. Songs do an exceptional job working off each other to create this fully realized whole. The album is best taken in as a coherent whole. Lyricism employs an acidic alliteration, for there’s this otherworldly quality to how things come together. Everything has so much tenderness and affection, giving the album a genuine adoration for the world. Instrumentally, it has a strong love for the 70s, as the golden era AM quality ties the narratives together in this gorgeous, sun-drenched way. - Skope Magazine
