Current Release:

"Todd Mosby Releases American Heartland, A Cinematic Tribute to Missouri’s Musical Soul St. Louis, MO, April 3, 2026 - Acclaimed composer and guitarist Todd Mosbyannounces the release of his new album, American Heartland, a richly textured, genre-spanning work that captures the spirit, landscape, and cultural depth of his home state. This 12 track collection blends contemporary jazz, folk, New Age, blues, solo acoustic guitar, and jazz-rock into an immersive musical journey.

Serving as the second chapter in Mosby’s ongoing musical travelogue series, American Heartland reflects a lifetime of artistic exploration and deep regional roots. The album features lush orchestration, evocative female vocals, dynamic horn arrangements, stately string passages, and minimalist, image-driven lyrics designed to create vivid landscapes.

An award-winning musician and Imrat guitar inventor, Mosby is known for synthesizing Western and North Indian classical traditions with jazz and Americana influences. His distinctive style draws comparisons to artists such as Steely Dan, Wes Montgomery, James Taylor, and Joni Mitchell, balancing sophisticated musicianship with broad accessibility.

American Heartland features an exceptional roster of world-class musicians, including Vinnie Colaiuta, Tom Scott, Leland Sklar, Luis Conte, Michael Manring, Dapo Torimiro, Nick Lane, Lola Kristine, Laura Vall, Dan Fornero, Judy Kang, John Dickson, and Bruce Carver. The album was produced by two-time Grammy winner Jeffrey Weber and was recorded at the legendary Village Studios, and mastered at Grundman Studios. 

Throughout his career, Mosby has released seven albums, earned multiple industry awards, and received praise from musical luminaries including Ustad Imrat Khan, Mike Stern, and Gary Burton. With American Heartland, he delivers one of his most personal and expansive statements to date.

The album’s standout tracks include the shimmering bossa nova “All the Stars Tonight,” the two-part “Witchi Tai,” the impressionistic “Clouds Above Golden Fields,” and the title track “American Heartland,” which layers contemporary jazz with rustic Midwestern warmth.

American Heartland is available on CD, digital download, and all major streaming platforms."

Submit Your Pedal Line!

About a million years ago, I used to run a blog called EffectsBay. On that blog, the most popular feature I would run was Pedal Line Friday. This is where readers of the site would send pics of their pedalboard and a short (sometimes long) write-up of routing and thoughts about specific pedals and the reasoning why they liked it, etc. Readers. loved this. It was a great way to learn about new applications or techniques regarding pedals. It also brought a little inspiration and knowledge about pedals you were not familiar with. It also brought a great sense of community - people like sharing and absorbing cool things, right? It was a super popular feature, and I loved putting them together.

All you have to do is send a pic of your pedalboard (or pedal line - it doesn't have to be on a board) along with a short (or long) write-up of the board. We want a list of pedals (manufacturer/model), routing would be great, and, most importantly, why you use those particular pedals. Also, this is a great way to promote your band or musical project - include that information as well!

You can send the pic and the write-up to pedalline@rattlesnakecables.com.
