Common Knowledge: Weekend Playlist By Todd Herrington

by | Jan 18, 2019 | MUSIC

Every Friday night, RVA Mag drops a hell of a playlist curated by influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This week’s installment is brought to us by Todd Herrington, bassist extraordinaire and man-about-town. You might recognize him from his work in a variety of local groups, including Mekong Xpress & the Get Fresh Horns, The Big Payback, and the Cris Jacobs Band (to name a few), as well as his excellent solo work. Herrington wields his bass to create a variety of different sounds and genres of music, and his playlist reflects his eclectic palette, showcasing everything from soul jazz and postpunk to old time folk and classic 70s rock. All of it is sure to get you through a cold, rainy weekend with a sunny smile on your face.

Tune in, Virginia.
