About Me |
|
| Raised in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina and from a musical family, Todd began singing in church and school groups. He performed in plays and talent shows throughout his school years. As he began to develope his musical abilities in college, he began to learn the guitar from a young lady that he was smitten by. He then realized that the song was what made the music and began to write songs of his own. His affinity for the acoustic guitar and the singer songwriters of the era, compelled him to hone his craft. The influences of artist like James Taylor, Jim Croce, Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, Al Green and Aretha Franklin made him aware of the song and its voice.
Once he had the nerve and a few songs under his belt, he began to play coffee houses and private parties. Eventually traversing a path to Nashville, where he worked for other artists and wrote with whomever he could to learn more.
Today, Todd Greene is an engaging solo performer with introspective original songs, and a rich voice steeped in rhythm & blues. He is truly an original American storyteller and captivating artist.
