Todd Menton is a founding member of the prominent Twin Cities folk-punk/ world-music/"Celtodelic Rock 'n' Reel" band Boiled in Lead. He has released three albums under his own name over the last decade, the latest of which, "The Dolmen Field," was called "a unique poly-cultural experience" (Dirty Linen). His high-energy solo sets, backed by guitar, mandolin, or bodhran, cover a range of traditional and original material—his website divides his samples into "Traditional Irish & Pub Songs," Acoustic Original Songs," "Folk Rock," and "Weird," so be ready for anything.
