Todd Boston is a national touring performing artist, a guitarist/multi-instrumentalist, and a producer of world and folk music. Live on stage he creates a passionate "one-man band" sound utilizing live looping technology to record and loop acoustic instruments all in the moment with no pre-recorded tracks.  He combines advanced finger style guitar techniques, percussion and various world instruments to create a sound both memorable and mesmerizing.  While performing as a soloist or in his acclaimed world fusion ensemble Urban Nature, Todd deeply connects to his audience in a soulful way.

Todd Boston's music has been gaining popularity and recognition worldwide.  He received nominations in the 2004 Arizona Music Awards and in the 2005 California Music Awards. Todd was chosen as Top Performer for Philly Rising at the esteemed World Cafe Live in 2005. His latest album (Urban Nature, Coming Home) has been consistently featured on Echoes, the two-hour nightly music show heard on over 130 NPR channels and distributed by Public Radio International. Urban Nature Coming Home was recently voted #13 for the Best CDs of 2009 on the Echoes listeners poll.

Todd Boston has been inspired by many artists, from the unique guitar stylings of Stanley Jordan and Jimi Hendrix, to the soulful playing of Eric Clapton and BB King.  He has mastered alternative tuning styles in the tradition of Jimmy Page, Leo Kottke and Michael Hedges. Todd has found inspiration in the musicianship of Bela Fleck, Victor Wooten, Ali Akbar Khan, Ravi Shankar, R. Carlos Nakai among others.
