About Me

Toady Barker (AKA Todd Baker) has performed in the Washington D.C. area for over twenty years. Have performed with many groups including Cravin' Dogs, 2nd Story, Graffitti, Lucky Dog, Gibb Droll, Eric Scott, Deanna Bogart, Brook Yoder, Brother Shamus, and countless others. Favorite sounds I like to imitate are Jimi Hendrix's Wah Wah solo's, The Flinstones, European police Car Sirens, other well known musical TV themes placed serendipitously inside a rock and roll solo. Just enjoy taking the violin to different places.Most of the tunes on this page are original compositions produced by the Cravin Dogs, who I have had the pleasure of working with for many many years...Keep on Rockin!
