By Jonathan Bristow Vince Meneses - the veteran Filipino singer-songwriter from Portland, OR, who performs under the moniker Zax Vandal - is finding new life, vitality and inspiration with age. On a journey that began with his fathers love of Englebert Humperdink, a coming of age in the underground crusty punk rock scene, and a transformative season with Billy Joel’s “The Stranger” coming into fatherhood, the eclectic musician is now stepping back into his music as a solo performer, after the pandemic and the heartbreaking dissolution of his band.
