Music rooted in improvisation, inspired by the moment and the audience.
Often compared to the funky, soulful jazz musicians such as Grant Green and Eddie Harris, you also hear artists such as The White Stripes and Beck influence his sound. His music is fresh, ever evolving, and lays out his immediate and unfiltered response to our society and times.
Teddy is known for speaking his own language on the guitar. He’s not flashy with in-your-face chops. He can own one note, and with that note, you know exactly what he means. Teddy plays for the moment, never repeating himself – risking the falls to reach the musical highs.
Ropeadope Records (DJ Logic, Christian McBride, Charlie Hunter, and Medeski, Martin, and Wood) released Teddy’s debut solo recordings: “Blueprint of Soul.” The album consists of songs written in a stream of consciousness, tracks done in one take, and unforgettable improvisational grooves. The result is a funky Friday-night party record, honored as a Critic's Pick Top 10 Album of 2007 by All About Jazz.
The Summer of 2009 welcomed Teddy’s newest musical contribution: “Outcries from a Sea of Red.” A more experimental yet more polished approach to Teddy’s music. Blues, Funk, Jazz, Electronic, Rock all make cameos on the genre-bending album.
The music of Teddy Presberg has another important characteristic: it is environmentally friendly. His touring is greenhouse gas free and endorsed by the eco-cool clothing company Nau. Teddy was also a part of the “Keep it Simple Tour” which was co-sponsored by the town of Alta, UT, and the eco-friendly organic bar producer Clif Bar. Teddy is also currently endorsed by Bulleit Bourbon.
Currently, Teddy is performing in support of his latest album all around the United States, teaching music, and producing musical projects in the entertainment industry.

Found you via Nite Owl's page...we are doing a show with him this upcoming Friday 20th @ Cicero's in Saint Louis, Missouri and wanted to make sure we were letting his friends know who we are and spreading the love.
"Help me!!! We never heard her speak in haste; Her tones were sweet, And modulated just so much As it was meet: Her heart sat silent through the noise And concourse of the street. There was no hurry in her hands, No hurry in her feet; There was no bliss drew nigh to her, That she might run to greet.
