Proclaimed by violinist Tim Carbone as a “Country & Eastern band,” Railroad Earth returns to Red Rocks on September 18th and they have just added Billy and the Kids featuring Bill Kreutzmann of the Grateful Dead, Reed Mathis of Tea Leaf Green, Tom Hamilton of American Babies, and Aron Magner of the Disco Biscuits to the bill in addition to fusion masters Snarky Puppy. Railroad Earth’s music is driven by the remarkable songs of front-man, Todd Sheaffer, and is delivered with seamless arrangements and superb musicianship courtesy of all six band members.

Nate Todd

Nate Todd was born on the central plains of Nebraska, but grew up on the high plains of the Texas panhandle. With not much to do in either place, music was his constant companion. His parents dubbed the first two albums he ever owned onto a tape for him. Side A was Bert and Ernie’s Sing Along. Side B was Sgt. Peppers. His lifelong love affair with music started early as he practically grew up in a Rock & Roll band, with his father and uncle often taking him out on the road or into the studio with them. Nate began performing live at sixteen and hasn’t looked back, having played in numerous bands from L.A. to Austin. At the age of twenty he was bitten by the writing bug, and upon moving to Denver decided to pursue a degree from Metropolitan State University where he recently graduated with a B.A. in English and a minor in Cinema Studies.
