Anybody familiar with him? I'm listening to Derek Trucks' Songlines and i'm really loving his grooves.

Big fan! On the DTB DVD Todd does a nice solo with a nod to Willie Weeks solo on Donny Hathaway's Everything's Everything. Check out Yonrico Scott's solo CD for a jazzier side of Smallie, so tasty!

Good player, very nice tone. Doesn't he sing most of the lead vocals as well with DTB?

Mike Mattison has lead... everyone but Derek sings though

Todd Smallie is very cool. I saw him with DTB and the soul stew band this summer. He and Yonrico are a great rhythm section, and Derek is a fantastic musician. Smallie's lines seem to perfectly fill the space he needs too.

He's actually a good friend of mine, we hung out last Thursday at the 5 Spot. He, Derek and Yonricho (DTB's drummer) were their watching Derek's younger brother's gig (Duane Trucks, he's a drummer).

Hopefully when he gets back into town, we'll hook up to jam and maybe get a lesson from him.
