Todd O'Neill Band

Louisiana-born country artist with an eclectic style that makes room for R&B and rock & roll influences, Todd O'Neill was born in Hammond, Louisiana in 1982. Todd grew up in a rural community where his family's appreciation of music was strong. O'Neill became a passionate fan of Merle Haggard, George Jones, and Otis Redding, as well as local Cajun music, and by the time he was in his mid-teens he'd learned to play guitar and started to sing. By the age of 20, he decided he wanted to make music his career. In 2009, O'Neill released his debut album, Real Life, under the Aria label. His career gained significant momentum in 2016 when he won the NASH Next Challenge, a national talent competition judged by industry figures like Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts and Kix Brooks of Brooks & Dunn. This victory led to a recording contract with Big Machine Records' Nash imprint and the release of his single “Love Again” in 2017. Co-written by labelmate Brett Young, the song peaked at number 37 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart. Throughout his career, O'Neill has shared stages with notable artists including Jason Aldean, Frankie Ballard, and Billy Currington, performing over 150 live shows in 2016 alone. His dynamic performances and soulful voice have captivated audiences across various venues. Beyond his solo endeavors, Todd collaborated with the New Orleans-based cover band The Chee Weez. In 2021, he announced his departure from the group to focus on Family in addition to his construction business, Fox Services.  Today, Todd O’Neill continues to be celebrated as one of the South’s premier private events entertainers, catering to weddings and corporate functions. His unique fusion of country, R&B and rock, combined with his authentic Louisiana roots, guarantees an unforgettable musical experience for every audience.
