He was among the first artists signed to Buffett's Margaritaville label and he's toured with Buffett. Though it's never been officially released Todd also cut a punk rock version of Margaritaville.

Much like John Prine, Kris Kristofferson, Keith Sykes, and Billy Joe Shaver he continues to be a mentor to Todd Snider.
Mike Utley also produced Todds first two releases.
Keith Sykes"discovered" Todd and turned Buffett on to him.

Buffett and Todd Snider have shared a guitar player as of late.........Will Kimbrough.
Jimmys oldest daughter is supposed to be a huge Snider fan.

From the Creed at
www.cobo.org:
"Many CoB,O brethren view Todd Snider as the rightful heir to the title of Chief Poet, Cheerful Hedonism division."
Not saying that I agree with this at all, because I don't. Just passing it along...
For those who may not be familiar with cobo.org, It is another cool Buffett site, just not as well traveled as BN.
