Ali Tod with Andrea Nardello
Description
Ali Tod
Scottish-born, Appalachian-based. Electrifying acoustic.
Ali Tod is a Scottish-born, Appalachian-based singer-songwriter and guitarist known for electrifying live performances that transform a single acoustic guitar into a full-band experience. Combining percussive fingerstyle techniques, live looping and emotionally resonant songwriting, she creates performances that are both techincally captivating and deeply human.
A seasoned international performer, Ali has appeared on stages across North America, Europe and Australasia. She has shared the stage with Brandi Carlile on multiple occasions, going from fan to bona fide festival performer. She recorded her second EP 'Lumbini '20' in the private studio of Rodrigo y Gabriela, and recently performed alongside Gabriela at the San Francisco Film Festival.
While her guitar work has earned recognition in the acoustic music world, Ali's greatest strength lies in her ability to connect with audiences through memorable songs and compelling live performances. Her powerhouse vocals and distinctive Scottish humor have endeared her to audiences all over the world, and her music bridges the gap between virtuosic musicianship and honest storytelling, drawing listeners in with equal parts energy, vulnerability and authenticity.
Ali's forthcoming album, produced by acclaimed guitarist and composer Kaki King, represents a significant artistic evolution, placing songwriting firmly at the center while retaining the innovative guitar work that has become her signature. Supporting the release, Ali will perform throughout Europe as part of the 2026 MusiSHEans Guitar Tour, before launching the new record in the Fall of 2026.
Whether performing at festivals, theaters, listening rooms or arts venues, Ali Tod delivers a live experience that leaves audiences inspired long after the final note.
