Gospel/blues/rock supergroup The Word (Robert Randolph, John Medeski and the North Mississippi All-Stars) will be coming to the Boulder Theater, October 9th in Boulder and the Ogden Theater in Denver on October 10th! Joining The World will be special guests Amy Helm and The Handsome Strangers.

Soul Food, the band’s new album and first in 14 years, has been garnering rave reviews since its release May 4th. Rolling Stone cited, “…the second mostly—instrumental chapter in the quintet’s exploration of the sacred space where gospel, jazz, blues and improvised rock’s X-factor joyously intersect”. New York Times noted “It’s a catalog of strengths, a romp through sacred steel music, blues and Southern soul that often sounds as if it could have been recorded in heated performance.”

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.
