Todd Burge and the Odd Urges last night's show

I went up to Marietta to see Todd Burge and the Odd urges show at Washington State Community College last night. Todd put on an entertaining show from start to finish- some solo songs early, working through several different CD's songs, incorporating the backing musicians throughout, and then the second set was the entire new CD, Distraction Packed. He incorporated some audio and visual things into the show for a nice creative touch, including the finishing song- which included his two kids singing along on a song (recorded, while he played live!) I have not seen Todd much with other musicians (mostly just solo shows) and he's got a good group playing with him, and adding some good harmonies and instrument work. Billy Matheney plays a great variety of instruments throughout, showing lots of talent in his versatility. Look for Todd to be playing this music around the state and region!
