Todd E Baier

After years of bartending, climbing telephone poles, and delivering mail, Todd Baier retired in 2025 to do what he'd been doing on the side the whole time: write songs. His catalog, released as Todd Baier's Chaos Band, runs deep into Americana and roots territory, plainspoken and a little dark around the edges. Fletch Morgan's Chaos Band is his debut novel about a fictional band that lives those songs. He lives on Lake Tawakoni, east of Dallas, where he kayaks, swims with his dogs, and keeps writing.
