  • Todd Rundgren Information
    Todd Rundgren I have been a Todd Rundgren fan for over 40 years now. His music has helped me cope with many things in my life including having RSD and now having an amputation. I feel that Todd is one of the most talented musician, song writer and music producer that I have ever met in my life. If you have ever heard Todd's music or had an opportunity to see Todd in concert, you will know what I mean. Most people do not know who Todd Rundgren is. Most people say Todd who? Todd's best-known songs are "Can We Still Be Friends," "Hello, It's Me" "I Saw the Light," "Love is the Answer," and "Bang on the Drum All Day" (this is the song that you hear at every sporting event). Todd is also known for his work with his two bands Nazz and Utopia, while producing records for artists such as Meat Loaf, Hall and Oats, Grand Funk Railroad, Hiroshi Takano, Badfinger, XTC, and the New York Dolls.

  • Roots Report: an Interview with Todd Rundgren
    Roots Report: An Interview with Todd Rundgren Okee dokee … I spoke with Todd Rundgren for about an hour last month in advance of his May 14 performance at The Odeum in East Greenwich. Here is the conversation. John Fuzek: Are you in Hawaii? Todd Rundgren: I am at the moment, yes. JF: Are you vacationing or do you live there now? TR: I’ve lived here for about 22 years now. JF: Is that the place that in the “Daryl’s House” video? TR: Yes, it is JF: I actually thought that you lived in upstate NY. TR: I did until the mid ’80s, then I moved the family up to San Francisco. I kept the place in Woodstock for a while and only went back and did projects, and in the mid ’90s we moved here. JF: You’re playing The Odeum on May 14. That’s an intimate venue. Do you choose to play those smaller venues? TR: No, we usually find larger venues to accommodate our production; the smaller venues are “pick up dates” or fill dates. JF: I saw you last year and it seemed pretty straight-forward with just the band; what do you have for production? TR: Last year I was not promoting a new record, I was trying to mollify the fans after a spate of somewhat challenging shows. The tour before last year I was promoting an album called Global, two singer/dancers and a DJ and a lot of lights (laughs). Tour before was me, Kassim, Prairie and Jesse. I was the DJ, and I discovered I couldn’t do all the singing that I needed to do and also DJ.

  • A Wizard, a True Star. the Title of Todd Rundgren's 1973 Solo Album Aptly Sums up the Contributions of This Multi-Faceted Artist to State-Of-The-Art Music
    TR-i A Wizard, A True Star. The title of Todd Rundgren's 1973 solo album aptly sums up the contributions of this multi-faceted artist to state-of-the-art music. As a songwriter, video pioneer, producer, recording artist, computer software developer, conceptualist, and, most recently, interactive artist (re-designated TR-i), Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, going on to found and front The Nazz, the quintessential `60's cult group. In 1969, he left the band to pursue a solo career, recording his debut offering, the legendary Runt. But it was 1972's seminal Something/Anything?, on which he played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts, and acted as his own producer, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight, prompting the press to unanimously dub him 'Rock's New Wunderkind'. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and the above mentioned A Wizard, A True Star, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light, Hello It's Me, Can We Still Be Friends, and Bang The Drum. In 1974, Todd formed Utopia, an entirely new approach to the concept of interactive musicianship, and embarked on an extensive round of touring and recording. Standout Utopia offerings included Oops! Wrong Planet, Adventures in Utopia, and Oblivion. Along the way, Utopia combined technical virtuosity and creative passion to create music that, for millions, defined the term "progressive rock." Rundgren's myriad production projects include albums by Patti Smith, Cheap Trick, Psychedelic Furs, Meatloaf, XTC, Grand Funk Railroad, and Hall And Oates.
