Singer-songwriter Renaldo Migaldi draws as much from R&B, jazz, and ethnic idioms as from pop and folk in the spare, sharply etched tunes on his soon-to-be-released CD Springtime in Jail.
The Michigan State News says: "Migaldi...is somewhat of a realist in the musical world. He doesn't believe songwriting is a mystical process that makes him merely a channel for songs sent from somewhere beyond. But he doesn't approach songwriting with a strict formula, either....His instrument of choice today is a Spanish classical, nylon-stringed guitar, but his unique style of finger-picking incorporates bass rhythms underneath the melody."
The Chicago-area Booster newspaper said: “There’s a fresh-scrubbed feel to [Migaldi’s] songs about the age-old boy-girl dilemmas and life in the city...an innocent angst is thrown into the great big world of artists and sex. Soft cha-chas...form the backdrop for some smart, uncluttered songs.”
