Hailing from the small town of Lismore on the North Coast of NSW Australia, Todd started to play the guitar at the age of 11. After classical training for 1 year Todd knew this was not the direction for his music and started lessons with a local electric guitar teacher.

?As a Luthier I get quite a few requests from up and coming guitar players each month for endorsement.
Some are genuine players, some are just dreamers.

Most get a nice reply from me, and that's where the story ends, or it was until I heard a young player that set my ears and heart on fire, and I instantly knew that here was a player that could understand and add to what Crossley Guitars is trying to achieve.

Todd is at the forefront of this country's next generation of guitar geniuses. His grasp of the melodic belies his tender years, there is a soul and brilliance in his music that still eludes players with many, many more road trips and gigs under their belt.
