| Description: | Hayden Pedigo is an acoustic guitarist and soundscape composer from Amarillo, Texas.
Perhaps most widely known for his endearing bid for Amarillo city council at the tender age
of 25, after his Harmony Korine inspired spoof campaign video went viral. Hayden's music is
equally enchanting, combining the American primitive guitar picking styles of John Fahey
with a proclivity for experimental sound design and manipulation. By his early 20s, Hayden
had already collaborated with luminaries such as Charles Hayward of This Heat, Fred Frith,
Werner Diermaier of Faust, and outlaw country legend, Terry Allen. However it's important to
expect the unexpected with Hayden Pedigo. With album artwork that depicts black metal
connotations and a sworn hater of the term "Cosmic Country", Hayden's satirical sense of
humour extends from the various characters he portrays on his Instagram page and into
every fibre of his being.
'Kid Candidate', a 67 minute documentary made about Hayden's Amarillo City Council bid
(dir. Jasmine Stodel) will be digitally released on July 2 2021 by production company and
distributor, Gunpowder & Sky. It made its worldwide film festival premiere at SXSW 2021 and
will be released on blu-ray in September 2021. Music from Letting Go also features in Kid
