Bio

American singer-songwriter Teddy Geiger first catapulted onto the national stage in March 2006 when his debut album, the critically-acclaimed Underage Thinking, entered the Billboard Top 200 at #8 and yielded a million-selling Hot AC Top 10 single For You I Will when Teddy was just 16.

This year Teddy is recording and releasing his new album, The Last Fears, exclusively through Pledge Music at www.pledgemusic.com/teddygeiger where fans are invited to help play an integral part in making the album.
Proficient on a number of instruments including guitar, bass, piano and drums, Geiger had first made his reputation as a musician in high school when gigs around his native Rochester, New York, earned the loyalty of an ever-growing fanbase of self-proclaimed Ted-Heads. While an internet fan buzz fueled his early burgeoning popularity, Teddys first independent release, the regional EP Stepladder (on Cred Records), peaked at #1 in Rochester and made the Top 10 in Billboards mid-Atlantic regional Heatseekers chart, leading to a deal with Columbia Records.

Teddys debut album, Underage Thinking, was both a popular and critical success. Teddy Geiger projects an easy charm along with his real pop chops, raved The New York Times while People magazine, in a three-and-a-half star Critics Choice review, predicted that Teddy Geiger should have a long career ahead of him.

Teddys dynamic new school pop, informed by the spirit of rocks glory days, earned him spots on shows featuring Gavin DeGraw, Kelly Clarkson, and Hilary Duffs #1 pop tour. Teddy has shared bills with Brandi Carlile, Pete Yorn, Simple Plan, Fall Out Boy, Frankie J, Jesse McCartney, The Click 5, among others. Teddys breakout year closed with the artist becoming the first male to grace the cover of Seventeen magazine in five years.

Teddy who had a dramatic role as an emerging young singer-songwriter in Love Monkey, the short-lived CBS cult television series (later picked up by VH1) made his big screen debut in 2008's The Rocker, a summer comedy starring Rainn Wilson and Christina Applegate which premiered a number of new Teddy Geiger performances in its soundtrack.

Since the release of The Rocker, Teddy Geiger moved to New York City and began writing the songs at the core of The Last Fears. New compositions and performances include Shake It Off, Magic, Home, Ordinary Man, One More Night, and Walking In The Sun. The album has a sound not dissimilar from his debut but also showcases both his maturity and depth as a songwriter and craftsman.
