Call it alternative acoustic, folk rock, or new folk. Above all else it's the essence of music created simply by a man and his guitar.
Bio / Background
Fast becoming a movement, Distill is the next installation of the New Folk sound from Todd. Full of energy and life, yet pared down to it’s essence, Distill consists of live recordings of new (and a few refurbished) originals. It’s an up-close and personal expose of songs written to be heard as you can now hear them: solo and straightforward.
When asked about the new album, Todd had this to say:
“After one of my sets promoting my last cd release (A Stones Throw) a guy came up and purchased a cd. He asked if the disc he was buying was just me playing my songs. I told him the songs had been built up with bass, drums, harmonies, etc. He looked slightly disappointed and said he’d really like a recording that was quite simply the way I played them on stage. I had considered that before, but always went back on it thinking that the songs wouldn’t sound complete enough in today’s market.
Then I realized this: My songs are honest and simple.
