Todd Day Wait is one of the last real American workhorse, pedal-to-the-metal troubadours — making his way from Missouri to California, to New Orleans, and now Nashville. His original material is deeply influenced by early American folk, country, and blues music from the 1920s through the 1960s, embodying the spirit and authenticity of traditional American music.

Todd Day Wait — whom you may know from his millions of spins on GemsOnVHS or WesternAF — writes and performs his own brand of timeless country music. Harking back to legends like Jimmie Rodgers, Willie Nelson, Wynn Stewart, and Kris Kristofferson, he keeps the spirit of country music alive.

In 2009, Todd put all his earthly belongings on the curb and hit the road in a diesel shuttle bus fueled by vegetable oil, embarking on a never-ending tour. From busking the streets of New Orleans to performing in the shadows of European castles, to lighting up the honky-tonk dance floors of Nashville, Todd keeps it 60/50.
