Todd Kessler has not let early recognition alter his course
in pursuit of his passion. In 2005 Kessler found himself as
a finalist in VH1's Song of the Year Contest. Only to be
acknowledged a year later by the web based reality
show, “Prom Queen†which featured his song “Conversations
in Gray.â€
Todd Kessler is a Singer/Songwriter whose passion for
what he does comes out in every performance he gives.
His lyrics are insightful commentary on ourselves as people
and our self as a society. With influences such as Bob
Dylan, Bob Marley, along with more contemporary influences
like Ray LaMontagne, M. Ward, and David Gray,
Todd's music is subtle in his arrangements yet powerful
in his delivery.
"The Veronika EP", which was released in February of 2008 on
his own label, Wyzguy Records has been met with acclaim
from his Chicago fan-base. Todd's debut album, "We Are
The Musicmakers", released in July of 2006, is currently
available on iTunes and CDbaby.com. Look for a follow-up release “Boomerang†late this year. Based out of Chicago, Todd has toured throughout parts
of the Midwest as well as shows in New York City, San
Francisco, and the famed Kibitz Room at Canter's Deli in
Los Angeles.
"Todd Kessler is a modern Folk singersongwriter
who addresses timeless social and
spiritual issues. Fans will adore his music for
years to come."

Engineer/Producer, Chicago, IL]
"If you are looking for some new and differet tunes, you should definitely give Chicago based singer/songwriter Todd Kessler a listen! His mix of pop-country-melodramatic melodies and melancholy, yet catchy lyrics gives faith to those that are lost in love or going through heartache. "
