Most influential artist to me have been, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, George Strait, etc. True artists that lived out there music. Not fabricated but real life stories mixed with talent producing real country music 

Artist: TODD BARROW
I’m looking forward to playing more live venues. Getting out there to help music lovers have a WOW experience!  Texas country artist heating up the airwaves. He has worked with many top acts in the music industry. Just to name a few, John Schneider, Jack Ingram and many more! Continues to build a fan following all over the world. Working hard to bring heart felt country songs that relate to all ages.

 I live in Texas and spend most of my time taking care of yard work, laundry, dishes, etc. The fun stuff is writing music and recording. Spend time raising chickens and taking care of my dog DolIy. I enjoy hunting, fishing and golf.

This past month I have mainly focused on social media. Enabling record promoters to get my songs to radio station. A big marketing push to make a greater impact in the industry.
 3 things I have learned this past year :
 1. I’ve learned that exercise is important
2. New strategies in record business
3. Relating to fans and what they are asking of me

 Willie Nelson once said,  “Three chords and the truth and you’ve got a country song.”

I believe that true artist live out there music. Not fabricated but real life stories mixed with talent producing real country music.

 My favorite instrument is the acoustic guitar. I have to say though most of my songwriting is on piano. Songwriting process comes in waves. I will think of the music in my head and then begin to write lyrics. Sometimes it is the other way around. I would say I’m pretty emotional when it comes to putting it down on paper.
