In 1997, Vidal released Mi Regalo and was nominated for his first Dove Award in the category of Best Spanish Language Album.

Por La Vida, released in 1999, was a collection of his greatest hits from previous albums.

His next project, Pescador, (2002), emphasized his passion to share the Gospel with people of all nations and was centered on the theme of being a fisherman.

Alabanza y Adoración en Vivo desde España (2003), was Vidal's first live album, in which he combined traditional congregational singing with more contemporary upbeat rhythms.

In 2016, he won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Christian Album at the 17th Annual Latin Grammy Awards.

Although born in Germany, Vidal has lived most of his life in Spain.

He speaks Spanish as his first language.
