| | | | Ted Leo first emerged on the hardcore scene of the late 1980s in the bands Citizen’s Arrest, Animal Crackers and Chisel.
He’s since become one of the most innovative and important figures in the east coast rock scene, both as a solo artist and as the front man for The Pharmacists.
Drawing from artists like Billy Bragg, Curtis Mayfield and Clash singer Joe Strummer, Ted Leo mixes punk rock with soul, folk and pop melodies. His music is literate and political with anthemic energy and infectious rhythms. | | | | | |
