Radio 1190 presents
VANDAVEER @ GEORGE'S
Vandaveer is the alt-folk song-singing/record making/globetrotting
project penned and put forth by DC-by-way-of-Kentucky tunesmith Mark
Charles Heidinger.
Vandaveer’s debut album, Grace & Speed, a mostly live, stripped down
affair, swiftly entered this great big dusty world in the spring of
2007. The press responded heartily, with The Washington Post saying
Vandaveer “revives the earnestness of the pre-psychedelic 60’s,” and
XM Cafe calling him “this generation’s Nick Drake.”
Vandaveer’s debut album, Grace & Speed, a mostly live, stripped down
affair, swiftly entered this great big dusty world in the spring of
2007 garnering rave reviews and comparisons to Donovan, Dylan, Waits,
Drake, Simon, and the like. Touring continually on both sides of the
Atlantic ever since, Vandaveer has played 250+ shows, sharing stages
with a host of humbling artists including Bon Iver, Alejandro
Escovedo, Vashti Bunyan, Vetiver, Evan Dando, Scout Niblett, The Ditty
Bops, Smog, Fleet Foxes, Alela Diane and his dear friends in DC’s
ramshackle collective, The Federal Reserve. In addition to said
Vandaveering, Heidinger has been known to fraternize and conspire with
other music-making hooligans, primarily as a bassist with fellow DCers
These United States.
“Jarring new folk.” – ROLLING STONE
The music on Vandaveer’s second album, Divide & Conquer, reflects the
duality an old soul and a little child trapped in a 32-year-old’s
body, with lyrics referencing both World War I and children’s author
Beverly Cleary in daydreamy songs featuring rich piano melodies and
the pure, delicate voice of bandmate Rose Guerin. – PASTE
