About Todd / Bio

From the Hills of a small county where the Bible belt is tight and there are more churches than streets the voice of Rock "n" Roll comes from a square shouldered 5 ft 10 brash and fiery songsmith and performer. Todd Geldart was born and raised in Albert County N.B Canada and has laid the foundation very early as to what he and his music are all about. His music has a connection; it speaks to and for the hard working middle class, the underdogs, the ones who just can't seem to make life go, those who are at constant odds with authority, and the hypocritical people who make up our governments. From his early work with songs like How Does It Feel and Better than That he has shown the honest, barebones simplicity of Rock. His more recent works take a stand of opinions, truths, and just plain human nature. Songs like Double Parked and Blue Collar Man leave you in total awe and when the song is over you just think "Damn, He's got that straight." Even his big Anthem type songs like Jerico Road, Hollywood Ending and Power between the Lines have an interleaved message within the big backbeat and thick rhythm guitars.

Todd worked on a farm growing up and at 14 he bought his first guitar from Sears and Roebuck. He worked all that summer to purchase his first guitar mostly because of his parents dislike for rock 'n' roll and motorcycles so these two things were to become his passions of youth and rebellion and still are today. But what once started out as a form of payback or teenage rebellion has turned into a craft of which many artist's find it difficult to achieve...... simplicity, earthiness the ability to write songs that are very identifiable on a personal level and yet artistically satisfying and he does it time and time again.

Todd has had songs on a number of compilations albums, performed numerous live radio and television shows and showcased at major music events. His songs have received airplay on a local and national level as well as being a featured songwriter at different events. Todd has played hundreds and hundreds of live shows, and shared stadium stages with bands such as Nazareth and many others.

Geldart is the last of a dying breed, an entertainer who was born to entertain not a prefab, let's do what's in, cookie cutter type of artist. He is a songwriter not just with something to say but with things we need to hear, things we need and do identify with. He is a T-shirt, blue Jeans; I don't care what style is in kind of guy. We are in a world where most things now seem to be so make believe and cheap, just fluff, things to entertain us for the moment and that's all. Here is the real deal, no gimmicks, no pretend, no artificial hype. Whether you listen to his albums or see him live his honesty and convictions hit you like a hammer!!!!!
