Hello, my name is Stephen William Hodd. I write, produce, and release my own music under the name HODD and have been a music professional for over three decades. I grew up in the vibrant Irish music scene, surrounded by luminaries like Glen Hansard, Damien Rice, and many more. As an artist, I’ve had the privilege of opening for legends such as Paul Brady, Mark Knopfler, Bonnie Raitt, Rodrigo y Gabriela, and Damien Rice, among countless others. As a guitarist, I’ve toured the world with Passenger and Lou Rhodes. I’ve also produced numerous albums for indie-folk artists and have just released 'Better Man'—a collection of new songs by HODD.

While guitarists learn strumming patterns from the earliest stages of their learning, piano players are often not taught how to "groove" until much later in their musical journey. It's my hope that these courses on Funky Piano Rhythms help pianists catch up rhythmically so that they can jam confidently.
