Watch Todd Snider's hotel room performance of America's Favorite Pastime for Was (Not Was) founder
Don Was.
Synthesis - 6/08 East Nashville Livin'
Todd Snider has spent much of his life wandering America’s dusty highways and endless train tracks. His songs combine the wanderlust of a beat poet with the honest narrative of a folk balladeer.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 3/08 Todd Snider & His Songs of Integrity
You hear a lot of talk about integrity in the music business. Usually, it's just people blowing smoke. But Todd Snider, whose alt-country songs are sardonic yet often speak truth to power, has integrity in spades.
The Music Box - 3/08 Live in Vancouver:
Todd Snider on the Skids
Swooping toward his microphone after switching guitars, a disheveled-looking Todd Snider faced the audience and explained, "I’ve just got one more song I have to get out of my system before I turn it over to you, and then, I’ll play whatever you want."
The Onion/Milwaukee - 2/08 Todd Snider
For almost 20 years, country-folk troubadour Todd Snider has, by his
own account, been traveling around and “making this shit up and singing
it for anybody who will listen.”
On Milwaukee.com - 2/08 Hallelujah, I'm a Bum Todd Snider's CDs should come with a warning label. Something like: The music on this disc is catchy, intelligent, articulate, sardonic, sarcastic and sometimes fantastic and it defies the kind of basic categorization that the recording industry has embraced for generations.
FolkWax - 2/08 A Perfect Match
What makes for a good opening act? Besides the obvious — an ability to keep the crowd entertained without overshadowing the headliner — it usually helps if the two acts share some essential quality that makes their music, well, just “fit together.”

"Of all the young singer-songwriters out there, I think Todd Snider is the best. By that I mean he has found a way to take his feelings and observations and turn them into songs that can get an audience. He won't quit 'til he gets the audience and he always gets the audience."
- Jerry Jeff Walker
"Todd Snider writes great songs and also is a great performer. He totally connects with every audience. Hardest act to follow since Steve Goodman."
- John Prine
"Todd Snider is a true songwriter, with the heart and humor of John Prine, the wild unpredictability of Roger Miller, and a fresh, original spirit and freedom of imagination that's absolutely his own."
- Kris Kristofferson
"When Todd Snider played, it was absolutely one of the best gigs I'd ever seen. He has a wonderful take on the world and the craziness that goes on and he tells it like it is with a great sense of humor. He's a rebel with a cause and I love him."
