Todd Carey – Ready for the Radio

Tag: Artist ReviewsBroadtexter @ 12:23 pm

Todd Carey is a singer/songwriter able to mix the best of pop and folk.  He reminds us of such artists as John MayerHowie Day, and David Mead.  His latest release, Watching Waiting, produced by Marshall Altman (Marc Broussard, Matt Nathanson) is a collection of Pop and Rock radio friendly tunes.  

Todd has opened for such artists as Tom Petty & The HeartbreakersThe Black CrowesTrey Anastasio, and Josh Kelly.  He has also opened for Jason Mraz with whom he shares many vocal qualities due to his light, clean, airy voice.  Todd recently posted the song ‘Smile’ on his Myspace page and in it he’s joined by Sara Bareilles.  This is an instant pop hit song!

In January 2008, Todd Carey became one of the first independent artists to launch a ground-breaking “Pay What You Feel” campaign which allows people to pay $0 - $10 to download his nationally distributed album. Purchases of $5 or more yield a $1 donation to the Go Green Initiative - an organization that funds educational programs for children about environmental issues. Carey has sold over 2,500 albums via this model since the inception in late January ‘08, and the numbers continue to grow. The Three of Hearts tour marks Carey’s first since the campaign began and expects to see plenty of new fans that recently discovered his music.
