"Unfolded is the work of an accomplished musical craftsman with keen pop sensibilities, a warm and inviting collection of songs that draw you in with the kinds of strong melody lines that stay with you long after you''ve put the disc away and keep your attention with thoughtfully conceived and well-crafted lyrics that are easy to relate to."- The Guardian
"Unfolded is a masterful fusion of solid pop melodies embraced by the warm organic sounds of acoustic instrumentation."- The Beacon
With Juno Award winning producer Gordie Sampson, Brad has embarked on a musical journey like no other. The result is Unfolded, Brad''s debut solo effort. All songs, written or CO-written by Brad, encompass the true essence of the art of songwriting, showcasing Brad''s guitar and vocal abilities. Guests on the CD include Natalie MacMaster and Gordie Sampson, just to name a few. "It was time to start recording and performing my own material again.... playing across our continent with Natalie is great, but I also feel compelled to sing my own songs again, it''s a need I can ignore no longer!" Natalie performs on UNFOLDED. "We collaborated on an original song entitled Stuck in the Middle which I have been singing during or opening Natalie''s show, we are equally excited about the song." The first single from the album, Stuck in the Middle has received heavy airplay on radio stations throughout the Maritime Provinces, the video to be released early in 2007.
"Stuck In the Middle…an instant light radio hit."- The Daily News
Brad has received coast to coast acclaim, including two Nova Scotia Music Industry nominations, Album of the Year, and New Artist of the Year, as well as an ECMA for Pop Artist of the Year.

“Stuck in the Middle," on which Natalie plays fiddle, is only one of the many great songs.”- https://www.tradebit.com
Brad Davidge is a very exciting, versatile player, full of energy and soul, a combination that is not easy to come by. His songwriting abilities are that of a true craftsman; both mature yet current and his vocal abilities are endless, possessing a 4-octave range, with both power and subtlety on demand. But most importantly, Brad’s concern is the music itself. "If I can connect with people in some way, then it''s all worth it. That''s what it''s all about for me."
