Legendary Record Producer/Artist Todd Rundgren returns with his newest album Todd Rundgren's Johnson: 12 classic songs written by bluesman Robert Johnson, to commemorate the centennial of Mr. Johnson's birth. Songs include "Crossroads", "Sweet Home Chicago" plus ten more, recorded at Rundgren's studio in Kauai, Utopia Sound. Todd played everything except bass, which was played by ex-Utopian Kasim Sulton. His last album from MPCA Records was 2008's Arena, a hard rocking collection of songs written, performed and produced by Todd. Highlights from the album included "Strike", "Courage" and "Mountaintop". A Wizard, A True Star. The title of Todd Rundgren's 1973 solo album aptly sums up the contributions of this multi-faceted artist to state-of-the-art music. As a songwriter, video pioneer, producer, recording artist, computer software developer, conceptualist, and, most recently, interactive artist (re-designated TR-i), Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music.

    Far Out's Sam Kemp writes….Todd Rundgren knows a thing or two about music. Not only is he a talented multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, but he is also an incredibly gifted sound engineer and producer, having worked on some of the most acclaimed albums of his day, including The Band’s 1970 record Stage Fright. When Patti Smith inducted him into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame – the ceremony of which refuse...

  • Get ready for an unpredictable evening with Todd Rundgren at the Wilma / Missoulian
    Posted At: November 2, 2018 12:00 AM

    Todd Rundgren will perform at the Wilma on Sunday, Nov. 4. To label Rundgren would be to work against him. While playing his portion in various blues-rock and English-style hybrid groups to his parts in garage rock-punk and psychedelia bands, Rundgren has somehow distanced himself from the label of genre-based artist. Though he's often thought of as a pure rock guitarist, he has flirted with everything f...

  • Latest hybrid SACD from Analog Spark, is reissue of Todd Rundgren's 'Something' / stereophile
    Posted At: April 1, 2018 12:00 AM

    One format that is often an afterthought in discussions about downloads, LPs, and every other music storage and playback medium is the SACD. Fiercely beloved by a determined minority, most of them audiophiles, SACDs continue to be manufactured, most recently by Mark Piro's New York-based Analog Spark label. His latest hybrid SACD release is a reissue of Todd Rundgren's 1972 masterpiece, Something...

  • Todd Rundgren still sounds brand new at SXSW / Los Angeles Times
    Posted At: March 18, 2018 12:00 AM

    The music (and film and tech and everything else) at South by Southwest almost always looks to the future. Emerging acts and novel sounds and panels try to make sense of a music industry turned inside-out. So what a treat to wander into a club set from '70s rock experimentalist Todd Rundgren at the end of Thursday evening's slate of music at 1 a.m. There are usually a few legacy acts or estab...
