I’m Bill Todd, a saxophonist and multi-woodwind instrumentalist now calling Los Angeles, CA, my home.

 

My musical journey began in Buffalo, NY, and flourished over a transformative decade in New York City. There, I honed my craft, sharing stages with world-renowned musicians and navigating the vibrant Broadway scene.

 

With a Bachelor’s in Jazz Studies from Purchase College and a Master’s in multiple woodwind performance, I’m driven by a passion for improvisation and a deep mastery of my instruments. I bring my artistry to life on all saxophones, piccolo, flute, clarinet, and oboe, performing regularly with my group, Billy T. & the Fam, the Butterfunk Family, and various big bands.

 

I thrive in the world of musical theater, studio recordings, and am dedicated to nurturing the next generation of musicians through my vibrant studio of private students.

​

Join me every Thursday night at the iconic Dresden and the first Wednesday of each month at Fanny’s. During the summer, we return to Santa Monica, where Billy T. & the Fam first found its groove.
