    Todd Woosley
    Todd Woolsey Todd Woolsey (tod wool?zee) n. musician; guitarist Bio Sure Todd's been all over the world playing guitar for Major Recording acts, but don't hold that against him! He can play. He has a gift for playing music that everyone enjoys: from the hard core guitarist right down to your everyday music lover. That's what you'll find here...fun, melodic, tasty, yet deceptively difficult guitar playing placed into well crafted songs that flow smoothly to the ears! You'll enjoy an amazing band and wonderful guitar playing smothered in great tone. Todd Woolsey - Guitars Todd was born in Canada where he graduated with a degree in Jazz Performance, and has been in the USA since the early 90’s making his living playing music. He’s played guitar full-time for Tracy Lawrence, Tanya Tucker, Trick Pony, and Billy Dean, among others. These Artists may make you think Country, but as you can tell by his music, what’s inside him is very much in the Blues/Rock Realm with a tinge of Jazz and Country thrown in for flavor. The words that come up most when people describe Todd are ‘Taste’ and ‘Tone’. After listening to this album, I’m sure you’ll agree.

About me:

Big Bends LLC was founded in 2001. In an "obsessive quest" to keep his guitars in tune, Jeff Massey (company founder) realized "friction" was the cause of virtually ALL tuning (pitch drift) problems. He found going out of tune while playing the guitar (or any stringed instrument) is almost always the direct consequence of "friction" acting upon the "fulcrum/pivot points of the floating bridge and the string bearing surfaces of the bridge, nut and string guides. After 10 years of experiments and improvements in both lubricants and applicators, the Nut Sauce filled Groove Luber was created. Today, Big Bends is still on a quest to bring the "Tech in a Tube" to every stringed instrument Artist, Builder and Repair Tech who has ever struggled with getting and staying in tune and breaking strings. All of our products are proudly made in the USA. Big Bends is located in Plainwell MI. about 15 miles from the old Gibson plant in Kalamazoo.
