TODD PEASE

Todd Pease’s lifelong love of music began with spinning LPs of the Beach Boys, Beatles, and KISS as a child. At age 12, he taught himself bass, guitar, and drums, guided by his natural rhythm, an exceptional ear for music, and a deep passion for a variety of genres. Over the years, Todd has been part of numerous garage rock bands, sharing his belief that “Music harmonizes with the soul and embodies emotional expression.”

Todd’s musical interests are as diverse as his influences, spanning Blues, Surf Music, Rockabilly, Southern Rock, Heavy Metal, Flamenco, and more. Artists like Al DiMeola, Stuart Hamm, Neil Peart, and Nita Strauss have shaped his approach to music.

A valued member of the RiverCity Rock Star Academy family since its founding in 2015, Todd has made weekly two-hour drives from Portland to lead the Tuesday Rockers program. While he is not currently available for lessons, Todd’s dedication to music and his students continues to inspire the RiverCity community.
