Vincent MacDonald is a songwriter / composer / producer with roots originating from all over the world. His parents were born in Surinam which is a multicultural melting pot of different cultures. 

Started out as a guitar player in coverbands but soon shifted his attention to songwriting and decided to dedicate to improve his craft. 

After studying Music Composition and songwriting he started writing compositions for various projects and regularly performs at livingroom sessions and songwriter sessions.

At a performance by Vincent MacDonald you’ll fall from one surprise to another. He will shower you with a hybrid mix of soul, jazz, funk, fusion pop, but in a very personal style. 

What to expect? It is colorful and adventurous, but is it also elusive? No: it is bold and groovy. In fact, it is increasingly becoming its trademark. 

VmD has it all:  he is a hybrid mix of African Asian, Scottish and native American. 

Sources of inspiration: Ben Harper, Anderson.Paak, Ben Howard, Raul Midon, John Mayer ,Otis Redding, Sam Cooke, Bill Withers and Donny Hathaway 

The topics in the songs are taken out of life. Over the years, VMD has played in various bands and projects and gained experience to eventually form and make his own sound. VMD often takes various musicians to his performances as a surprise.

Inspiration

Subjects that I have dealt with myself and which you can probably recognize in. Then I provide the words of a melody and a beat to complete the feeling. This process can arise in different ways. Sometimes you first have music and then follow text and sometimes a whole idea in my head, which I then elaborate.  

Through the years I have been able to play in various bands, such as the New Sound Sistem reggae band or the lating group Bandera Latina, I played in various coverbands and accompanied singers / singers on acoustic guitar.  

As a musician, I like to hear my own sound. Writing, singing, playing ... My focus is on (modern) soul, blues, folk and reggae.  

VMD also creates Remixes on the Skio Music platform. Its very interesting to listen and work with stems from other musicians / producers and try to give the remix a diffrent twist.
