"What makes Austin Music Award-winner Toddy B more than just a DJ? He doesn't just play at a party; he is the party, understanding that the success of an evening at a club or party is essentially in his hands. He's not just a master behind the turntables but a master emcee as well, whipping the crowds into frenzies with his energy and skill. On the radio or live in person, the B in Toddy B stands for Best."
Todd is definitely keeping himself busy and knee deep in the music scene, which is the perfect place for a man with his passion to be.
