For lovers of classic rock, indie rock, alternative, reggae, and Irish folk, there's New Jersey native Ted Leo. With Living with the Living, his sixth album with his current outfit The Pharmacists (Chris Wilson and Dave Lerners), Leo proves to be on the path to becoming a modern rock and roll hero ŕ la Springsteen.
Leo has been playing for almost 20 years now, and there's no end in sight. He began his career in New York clubs with bands Citizen's Arrest and Animal Crackers, then became a member and the main songwriter for the DC-based band Chisel. He has been playing with The Pharmacists since 1999 and joined Lookout! Records in 2001. Living With the Living marks his first record with Touch & Go Records.
