Madi Diaz LIVE at Acoustic Long Island's Winter Concert

Madi Diaz captivated the crowd at the Patchogue Theatre with her powerful yet sensitive voice, her absolutely heartfelt lyrics, and a fantastic band to back her up. She's been featured at the South by Southwest Festival and opened for Linda Ronstadt at the 2007 Newport Folk Festival. Her début solo album, Skin and Bone is filled with songs rich in precocious wisdom, unassuming poetry, and melodic sophistication. Without paying direct homage to a particular time or place, the record evokes the locations of Diaz's youth: the wide-open spaces of the Amish countryside, the unsettling thrills and daunting possibilities of Philly's urban jungle - and the longing and loneliness common to both. Diaz's music is steeped in rock tradition, calling to mind such icons of Americana as Shawn Colvin, Sheryl Crow, and Patty Griffin. Find out more at www.madidiaz.com or www.myspace.com/madidiaz.
