Pittsford Native Sweeps The Nation

Teddy Geiger is sweeping hearts across the nation. As a freshman in high school, he began playing guitar at local coffee shops, performing in front of a handful of friends and family. Young and passionate, he was frequently offered gigs, which earned him his independent regional EP release Stepladder, ranked number one on Rochester radio stations.
The Rochester native’s career was jump-started when he was selected as a finalist on VH1’s “In Search of the New Partridge Family.” At this time, he caught the ear of Billy Mann, producer to the stars, who quickly became an advocate of Teddy and his music. Geiger’s hard work and dedication landed him on Billboard magazine’s top 10 mid- Atlantic releases.
This singer-songwriter is much more than a pretty face holding an instrument. He wrote 11 of the 12 songs on his debut album, Underage Thinking. On his freshly released CD, Geiger impressively plays guitar, piano, bass and drums. As a self-taught musician, he was writing and arranging multi-part compositions on guitar and piano before the age of 10.  His way with words attract a young demographic, and his natural style shines through his onstage performances.
The underage songster’s soft spoken sound is a mix between Jack Johnson, John Mayer and Jason Mraz. His intimate vocals are sincere and conversational;  he creates a sound and sensibility of his own. His music video “For You I Will (Confidence),” is currently ranked on MTV’s “Total Request Live,” featuring Orange County’s Kristin Cavallari from the hit series “Laguna Beach.” Geiger makes brief appearances on the CBS comedy “Love Monkey” as the character Wayne, an aspiring young singer-songwriter prodigy. Teddy performs four songs on the initial episode of the series and his music is used as audio background during specific scenes.
Geiger is a remarkable and creative individual with an incredible voice and a perspective that is informed and mature. He is content, whether it’s opening for Hilary Duff, sharing a bill with Gavin DeGraw or playing at proms for eager fans. He built his career from the grassroots level, and genuinely deserves recognition as a thriving and talented young artist.
