Todd Rundgren

Presented by St. Johns County Cultural Events Division at Ponte Vedra Concert Hall

Few artists have been as fearless and groundbreaking, nor possess such an expansive and exceptional body of art, as Todd Rundgren. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, going on to front The Nazz, the quintessential 60s psychedelic pop group. In 1969, he left the band to pursue a solo career, recording his debut album Runt, but it was 1972’s seminal Something/Anything? (on which he played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts and acted as his own producer) that catapulted Rundgren into the limelight, prompting the media to dub him “Rock’s New Wunderkind”. This was followed by such landmark albums as A Wizard, A True Star, Todd and The Hermit Of Mink Hollow. In 1974, Rundgren formed Utopia, who were on the cutting edge of progressive rock in the 70s, and developed into a very tidy power pop outfit in the 80s. As a songwriter, video pioneer, producer, recording artist, computer software developer, conceptualist and interactive artist, Rundgren made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music. Among his myriad of hits are “Hello, It’s Me”, “I Saw the Light”, “Can We Still Be Friends”, “We Gotta Get You A Woman”, “Open My Eyes” and “Bang the Drum”. Rundgren is also internationally acknowledged as the Godfather of the marriage of music and multimedia.
