Todd Cecil & Dirt Yard Choir ( formerly BACK SOUTH)
BIO
Genre-bending Americana Blues-Rock trio from Asheville North Carolina.
Todd Cecil & Dirt Yard Choir is a mixture of music medicine ranging from Appalachian Swamp Rock to thought provoking songwriting. The trio has a dynamic range to please any crowd, and when it’s time to dance at the show, it’s hard to sit still.
The band features ecletic drumming, experimental harmonica playing, guitar and a homemade guitar/bass cigar box instrument straight from Mississippi.
The members consist of

a Nashville songwriter scene transplant.
Todd has traveled the world promoting his music and positive thinking through creative art and the belief in oneself.
Mike Fore (Harmonica) – a South Carolina transplant and
Scott Harte: (Drums, Washboard and Spoons) – true-blue Asheville
Together the three make a monstrous sound with fun quirky and uplifting live performances that is uniquely their own.
