Biography
Hey everybody!
I'm Todd, a 49 year old sudo Lyricist and Singer from Fredericksburg, Virginia.
I've been influenced over the years from everything from Punk to Funk, and just about everything inbetween.
As I've mellowed, I have gravitated into the calmer genres of music meaning, Country, Blues, Ballads, jazz, ect.. That's not to say I don't sing other genres, it's just not as prevelent in my songs as it once was.

I've never really persued any music career, but music and singing has always been a huge part of my life from as far back as I can remember.
Four years ago I went in for a stress test and ended up leaving the hospital after having 6 bypasses. I actually had known something was wrong for a long time, but it took me 12 years to go in and see what it was. After hearing my surgen say he couldn't understand why I hadn't died years ago, I seemed to develope a different outlook on life :)
A nice byproduct of having the surgery was that I quit smoking during my 5 day hospiyal stay, which had been a part of my life since I was 15. It's funny, I could have never pictured myself not smoking.

Anyway, now that my doctor tells me I have another good 40 years in me, I made my own little " Bucket List " of things I wanted to do. One of the items on the list was to get a CD put together, so I started looking into the whole internet recording thing. I got some equipment, found some collaboration sites, and dove in. With the help of some extremely talented artists on sites like the Les Paul Forum and The MUsicians Collaboration Studio, I've been able to put some tunes together for that CD.

I hope to have many more tunes to come collaborating with many more talented folks in the future.
Cheers,
Todd
