About The Events

Shadow Captain is the brainchild of Liverpool singer-songwriter and musician Stuart Todd.

After playing with guitarist Neil Campbell in the acoustic duo Campbell Todd, Stuart fronted his own group The Freebies; to promote his first solo album A Question Of Time before going on to play in Three Minute Hero. He would enjoy success as an award-winning promoter with Graham Holland and Liverpool Acoustic, where they would host events at View Two Gallery on Mathew Street. Stuart also plays bass for artists Mark Pountney and Only Child.

Shadow Captain recorded the album April Moon with respected producer and engineer Andy Fernihough. You can read reviews of the album on Fatea Magazine / Americana UK / Liverpool Acoustic / Sound & Vision

The tracks Hey Django and The Room’s Too Bare have received radio airplay on BBC Music Introducing. All music from the artist is available from Bandcamp
