Biography
High school friends Todd Park Mohr, Brian Nevin and Rob Squires began performing rock and blues together in Colorado in the mid-1980s and with the addition of Jeremy Lawton they have endured as popular concert and recording artists.
Their 1993 album 'Sister Sweetly', which featured hit singles 'Bittersweet', 'Circle' and 'Broken Hearted Savior', was a platinum-seller and their 2010 release 'Rock Steady' went to number ten on the Billboard Independent Albums Chart. Singles 'Bittersweet' from their 1993 'Live' album and 'Resignation Superman' from their 1997 'Beautiful World' album, reached the Top 20 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Songs Chart.
As Big Head Todd and The Monsters, their warm and laid-back rocking blues style made them favourites among audiences in America's Rocky Mountain states from the late '80s and they made their recording debut with 'Another Mayberry' in 1989 followed later that year by 'Midnight Radio'. Their 'Live' album was recorded at the H.O.R.D.E. Festival and followed by 'Strategem' in 1994 and 'Beautiful World' in '97. 'Live Monsters' came out in '98 and another studio album, 'Riviera', followed in 2002 with 'Crimes of Passion' and 'Live at the Fillmore' in 2004.
The 2005 Internet release 'Blue Sky' was written in honour of the American space program after the disaster of Columbia and it was picked up by then Senator Hilary Clinton for her presidential campaign in 2008. Other albums have followed including '100 Years of Robert Johnson', which featured famous blues artists including B. B. King, Charlie Musselwhite and Lightnin' Malcolm. Mohr sang the American national anthem at the Colorado Rockies football game against the Cleveland Indians in 2017 and the band's appearances included the KBCO On Tap charity series at Breckenridge Brewery in Denver with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and Anderson East.
