about

Hello All,
Here are two tracks from 2007.

I Hope Fred Doesn’t Get Rabies was inspired by a group email I received from John Barnes. The lyrics are pretty much just me reading his email. John used to send some interesting emails and I’m not sure if this is a true story or not, but my gut tells me it is. The subject of the email was “Should I Worry”?

I first met John Barnes on University Avenue in Morgantown in front of the Sunnyside Superette. Owen Davis introduced us by saying, “Todd is from Parkersburg”. I reached out my hand and asked John where he was from, and he said, “Earth”. It is unlikely you’ll hear this song at my live shows.

I had recently purchased a Zoom RhythmTrak RT-323 and was creating some demos with it for my upcoming album My Lost and Found.

My Kinda Town (2007)
I re-recorded this song for my “best of” release entitle Most Requested found only on my Bandcamp page.

The lyrics were mostly written in the stock room at Stone & Thomas during the holiday rush. In-between customers of course. I ran the suit department there for a while and wrote songs in my head the entire time.

I hope you enjoy!
Thank you for everything.
Love,
Todd
