Though his band has racked up seven studio albums and countless miles since he first picked up a guitar as a Colorado teen, Big Head Todd and The Monsters frontman Todd Park Mohr still uses the word “discovery” when he talks about writing songs. He says of “Blue Sky,” from the group’s forthcoming album, All the Love You Need: “We befriended this guy who’s in research and development for NASA, and he asked us to come up with a song for their launches. But I’m not the kind of person who can say, ‘Okay, I’ll write you a song about a particular topic.’ A few months later, though, I discovered a piece of music I knew would be great; I just sort of fell upon it.”
The band is so devoted to its fans, in fact, that they’ve logged three fan excursions, two cruises to the Caribbean and a land-lovers jaunt to Hawaii. “We play a bunch of shows, and we never play the same song twice, which we all love,” Mohr says. “We don’t make any money off the trips, but we have a blast and there’s really no better way to get to know your fans.”
Still, for Big Head Todd and The Monsters, remaining connected to their audience means taking creative risks and inviting their longtime followers to grow alongside them while also welcoming new fans into the fold. “We’re never going to be one of those bands that relies on their hits,” Mohr says. “I think All the Love You Need is the best record we’ve ever done. I’m enjoying being a performer and a songwriter more than I ever have, and I think that’s the payoff for making new music, discovering something fresh and interesting and ultimately, worthy of our fans.”
