Manny Wilde

Venezuelan-born Manny Wilde is a Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter sharing his peculiar ensemble of sensibilities with the West Coast. While sprouting his roots in rock & roll, Manny soon found his calling in mixing his jazz-folk vocals with a sound closer to the blues ground. Ray Charles, Van Morrison and Frank Sinatra serve as the biggest influences in Wilde's vocal roster while his instrumentals maintain a jazz-blues incense more in the vain of Neil Young. Throughout his time in LA, Manny has been honing his craft in the open mic and art scenes. His commitment to bringing an audience to visit his emotional wavelengths exemplifies Manny's faith in emotional honesty. Whether with his guitar, piano or harmonica at the helm, Manny aims to mix old influences with what's relevant today. Themes of love, acceptance and redemption cover Manny's lyrical works with a call back to the days of Nick Drake and Bob Dylan.
