Todd Grebe grew up in Anchorage Alaska, and as long as he can remember he's loved singing. He started learning the guitar in high school as a way to accompany his voice. He quickly got interested in Bluegrass and learned to play by putting his own band together and touring around the state. After a few years of performing, his band Wellstrung became one of the best received bands in Alaska with appearances at all the major festivals and clubs. As Todd developed as a band leader, singer and instrumentalist, he found that writing songs came naturally to him. Most of the songs he was writing were outside of the bluegrass mold, which led Todd to start a new band that could facilitate his style of writing. Todd Grebe and his new band Cold Country came out with a self-titled all original album in 2008 which was well regarded among Alaskan fans and media. It featured rowdy lead vocals, slap bass, mandolin, and Angela Oudean of Bearfoot on the fiddle and harmony vocals. Todd continues to explore songwriting in Nashville with his new Cold Country collaboration which is set to record a new album of original tunes in Dec 2010. Todd is excited to record with industry veterans David Ferguson (engineer), Mike Bub (bass and co-producer), and David Long (mandolin) with Angela Oudean continuing to accompany on fiddle and vocals. Todd has been well acquainted with members of Bearfoot for over a decade. He's played many shows with Angela and Jason, and has spent countless nights jamming and working out three part harmonies with them. Todd is also an experienced guitar teacher having taught many private lessons and at dozens of camps throughout Alaska and Hawaii, some of which were with Bearfoot's Bluegrass Camps for Kids. He's excited to get out on the national scene and make some music with his friends in the new lineup of Bearfoot.
