Todd Helvig is what happens when a powerhouse voice is paired with an acoustic guitar. He is a Midwestern singer/songwriter with his roots in the heart of America. Nothing says that more than his style of songwriting which blends (or bends) the genres of Folk, Americana, and Acoustic Rock with undertones of Jazz. A self-taught musician, Todd grew up on a steady diet of classic rock sprinkled with the occasional hair-band. As his relationship with music grew, a variety of musicians along the lines of Leadbelly, Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, Joni Mitchell, and Ani Difranco had a tremendous influence on the way he listened to and wrote music. Similar to these artists, Todd’s distinctive sound stems from a combination of intense, evocative lyrics, powerful vocals, and a rhythmic guitar style.
Though Todd still plays the occasional solo set, these days you'll most likely find him performing with Charlie Miller (keys, trumpet) and company. Charlie is a Denver-based musician who is an extremely talented and skilled musician. He effortlessly weaves his jazz-based harmonies in a way that lifts each song into a new spectrum of sound. The duo expect to soon be accompanied by a rhythm section, new recordings, and fleet of gigs to follow.
