Todd Sickafoose

Northern Californian bassist and composer Todd Sickafoose makes richly moving, imaginative music which has been called “thoroughly original, endlessly creative” by Jazz Times and “stunningly brilliant” by Bassplayer. His band Tiny Resistors is a marvel of musical cross- breeding, pairing indie rock muscle and whimsy with the sophistication of a jazz orchestra. A frequent collaborator of singer/songwriters, Sickafoose has been “Ani DiFranco’s secret weapon” (New Yorker) for many years and has also worked with Andrew Bird, Jenny Scheinman, Nels Cline, Allison Miller, and Myra Melford. As producer/engineer, he has helmed recordings with Anaïs Mitchell and Justin Vernon, Rupa & the April Fishes, Erin McKeown, and more.
