Drawing on eclectic influences such as American and Irish folk, soul, blues, Latin and Afro-Brazilian rhythms, Valdaniel loops vocals and multiple instruments together to weave a rich cord both tethered in and embellishing the singer/songwriter tradition in a genre he refers to as Americana Folk-Hop. He has performed his unique sound and multi-faceted live show in Colombia and Brazil in addition to many of New York City's esteemed venues including The Bitter End, Caffe Vivaldi and Rockwood Music Hall.

Valdaniel has worked as a composer for several stage plays including his own “The PennyPan Cabaret” which ran in 2017-18 at the revered Nuyorican Poets Cafe in the East Village. His original play “Escape From Paradise” was selected for the New York/ New Works Theatre Festival and produced at Theatre Row on 42nd St.
