About Burning Blue Music & TODD BRADLEY

Nashville-based producer, songwriter, engineer and artist manager Todd Bradley has worked with mega-hit artists over his 25+ year career in the music industry. He has performed alongside and worked with some of the industry's most successful modern talents across the spectrum of the industry, including The Black Crowes, Goo Goo Dolls, Tonic, Better Than Ezra, Collective Soul, Sugar Ray, Nickelback, as well as with legendary acts like Journey, Al Green, Rufus and Carla Thomas, Jimi Jameson (Survivor), and the iconic Sly Stone.

While working with artists from indie talents to emerging rock, R&B and country acts, Todd continued to work both on stage and in the studio, maintaining a strong connection to his performance roots.

A move to Nashville ushered in the discovery of a new world. Tapping into his vast touring knowledge, music managers and labels quickly came to rely on Todd's years of experience on the road and, from intimate venues to huge arenas, he began building lasting relationships with some of country's greatest stars, including Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, Alan Jackson, Hank Williams Jr., Brad Paisley, Jamie Johnson, and Charles Kelley (of Lady Antebellum). But the majority of his time in country was spent in the orbit of Muzik Mafia, working with James Otto, Big & Rich and Gretchen Wilson. His work is a rich tapestry of wide-ranging experience; he has recorded in the world famous Sun Studios in Memphis, worked with incredible artists in myriad capacities, and has developed and produced live shows for mega entertainment companies, the likes of Disney, Hard Rock International, Warner Brothers, Universal, and more.

With the growth of BBM and refocusing of his talent roster, Todd has returned to his roots, seeking out the best new and emerging artists, while continuing his work with classic acts.

With this growth has come an expansion into digital distribution, marketing, and placement, and he has created valuable and strong relationships across the digital music space. 

Developing new talent into something fresh, exciting and successful is something he's been doing his whole life. Through Burning Blue Music, he continues this work with a select group of clients in Nashville and beyond, specializing in development, management, recording and producing talents across genres.

His real-life industry experience in every area of the industry gives Todd deep insight into the challenges faced by artists in the current climate. He is committed to bringing the very best of what "the biz" has to offer.
