Biography

Stan Ridgway’s tenure with Wall of Voodoo may have launched him to semi-stardom, but his solo musical style is more blues rock, almost Americana-ish, than WoV’s big hit “

Mexican Radio.” Multiple solo albums and collaborations later, Ridgway morphs with each release.

Multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Stan Ridgway was the original lead singer for the band Wall of Voodoo, singing on their debut EP and first two albums, including their only hit song, “Mexican Radio”. Wall Of Voodoo’s genesis was in a Hollywood company called “Acme Soundtracks”, a commercially unsuccessful venture founded in 1977 in Hollywood by Ridgway.
