Todd Snider

Keith Richards said humor was rock and roll’s greatest weapon, Bob Dylan proved it and Snider takes it to heart. For twelve years, Snider has been a satirist, class cutup and the rare artist who understands and celebrates the connections between the Stones, Dylan, Bill Hicks, John Prine, Mitch Hedberg, Kris Kristofferson, Hunter S. Thompson and Randy Newman. Snider’s records are fun even when they aren’t being funny, funny even when they’re sad, and no less truthful for the laughs. Post the success of his heralded 2008 EP, Peace Queer, Todd is set to release his latest masterpiece, "The Excitement Plan", produced by Don Was this June and answers the famous Proust Questionnaire to give some insight into the music and the madness:
