TJD is getting up to... something. Working under the banner of "find what feels good" he's found a deep community in the music scenes of Minneapolis and St.Paul, Minnesota. His sound traverses Americana; with each record capturing its own sound, supporting writing of that ephemeral-modern-folk-storytelling flair. A songwriter, sideman, teacher, and all around music entity; he's been at it since the millennium. He's all over the place in Minneapolis folk, bluegrass, country, trad jazz and indie scenes, singing his own tunes and often seen singing backups and playing bass alongside some of the Twin Cities best. You can catch him backing up Clare Doyle or Luke Callen these days, but his performance and recording credits keep on going: Carriage House, The Lowland Lakers, Barbaro, Lenz and Frenz, Gentleman's Anti-Temperance League, Mississippi Hot Club, Lena Elizabeth, Sonic Intention, The Tasty Tones, DIVES, Michael Gay, and Old Country Buffet. Raised in bluffs and coulees along the Mississippi River in La Crosse, Wisconsin
