In The Pines
Todd Phillips (pictured at right) is the acoustic bassist of choice on many of the most innovative as well as traditional acoustic bluegrass (and beyond) recordings made over the last twenty years. A bassist since he was eleven years old, he has aligned himself with the finest musicians and creative contributors to acoustic instrumental music known, such as the original David Grisman Quintet and the Tony Rice Unit, as well as with bluegrass legends J.D. Crowe, Ricky Skaggs, Jerry Douglas, and many, many more. He currently records with a variety of artists, while writing, arranging, recording, and producing for his own projects.
