Vivaldi's continued membership in I Legion resulted in the release of their sophomore effort Pleiona. Its video went viral as well, tracking up well over a million views. 2015 also saw the release of a cover version of Joe Satriani's "Crystal Planet" featuring Dan Sugarman. He continued to tour extensively through most of the following year. He began formally touring as a headliner at the beginning of 2015, playing cities in the U.S. The same year, Vivaldi launched a live broadcast (with Chris Letchford of Scale the Summit) called "Shred for ALS," raising money for ALS research. 1 in 2014 - whose songs were all titled in Morse Code. He simply kept on posting videos and releasing records, including the five-track Away with Words, Pt. In 2012, he joined the metal band I Legion, appearing on their debut Beyond Darkness. He left when the band was offered a recording contract, claiming he wasn't ready to get anchored to a label for any reason. He was approached about joining supergroup Vext and recorded and performed on the band's debut EP, Impermanence. Vivaldi didn't tour at the time and for some years afterward.
Its two music videos - for "A Mercurian Summer" and "A Martian Winter" - went viral and signaled to guitar fans the arrival of a major new talent. For instance, in 2011, he issued Universal Language with producer Will Putney. He's a maverick who has insisted from the beginning on doing things his own way. Vivaldi's career has not followed music industry logic. He followed it with the The Speed of Dark a year later and posted his first video - a play-through of "Acid Reign" on YouTube - just after displaying his technical virtuosity.
He has since disavowed it, and as a result wasn't available for many years. His debut album, Revelations, was released in 2008. He did his woodshedding in bars and clubs between 2003-2007.
Vivaldi began playing at the age of 15, influenced by Nirvana, Megadeth, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Eric Johnson. He is well known for a hard-won, inventive playing style and lavishly conceived music videos that have collectively been viewed some ten million times. Angel Vivaldi is an American prog-metal guitarist, composer, producer, environmentalist, and philanthropist from New Jersey.
