Todd has been playing guitar for over 30 years, with deep roots in songwriting, live performance, and worship music. The son of a gospel singer, Todd’s musical journey began with piano lessons as a child, studying under a variety of instructors before picking up the guitar at age 15 and discovering a lifelong passion. In 1996, he formed the band The Shake alongside his cousin and two close friends, releasing multiple original recordings and playing shows across Texas before the band’s final performance in 2001. Since 2013, Todd has served on the worship team at Valley Creek Church in Flower Mound, contributing to three live album projects and mentoring younger musicians. He believes in making guitar accessible, fun, and expressive—whether you’re learning your first chord or working toward playing with a band or worship team.
