Todd Binder is an indie-rock artist who began his career in Charlottesville, VA. Performing his original music on the local bar scenes for the University of Virginia and surrounding cities, he quickly gained a reputation for his high-energy shows and songwriting talent. Previous unreleased albums garnered the attention of industry notables such as Paul Evans, co-author of The Rolling Stone Album Guide, who offered “Great songs. Insinuating vocals. Extremely promising!” as well as late Dave Matthews Band saxophonist Leroi Moore, who invited Todd to record an EP at the band’s private Haunted Hollow recording studio in Virginia.

Now based in Marin County, California, Todd Binder officially began releasing singles in 2023. His first 3 releases were selected as semi-finalist winners in 5 categories of the 2023 International Songwriting Competition: best Adult Album Alternative, best Unsigned, Sunray; best Americana, Real Love; best Folk/Singer-songwriter, best Unpublished, Alameda.
