‘Catch of the Day’ – Todd O’Neill [AUDIO]

Today's catch of the day comes from down in Louisiana, where when they're cooking up something in the kitchen, they tend to throw a little bit of everything in the pot. Our artist today applies that same homegrown creative philosophy to his life and to his music.

Singer/songwriter Todd O'Neill has concocted his own recipe for some seriously soulful, heartfelt and rockin' country music and perfected it countless honky tonks, cluns and dancehalls near his hometown of Hammond, LA just north of New Orleans, O'Neill's all-inclusive country music vision embraces everything from tear-in-your-beer ballads to flat-out country rock anthems, delivered in a pure-country voice that sounds at once instantly familiar and like nobody you've heard before.

Todd and his band are currently hard at work on their debut album, to feature their latest single; that song is in our spotlight today. Todd O'Neill and "Hurts When I Breathe" is our Catch of the Day, new music you haven't heard, but you'll want to hear it again.
