"Coffee House" Todd Goldin


January Musician of the Month


Todd Goldin, aka "Coffee House" Todd, is a man who needs no introduction. Well-known and well-loved by the Jersey Shore music community, Todd and his Mom, Dale, are the area's most dedicated and enthusiastic supporters of the artists and the venues they play. Todd knows just about all the performers, their genres, gigs (next, current and last) and the words to almost every, if not every, song. And his T-shirt collection is second to none. 

Todd often can be seen accompanying acts on percussion instruments i.e. bongos, shakers, tamborines, snare drums, congas etc. He's hosted many open mic nights and kept the musicians in line and following the schedule. No one enjoys the music and community spirit more than Todd.

In this candid interview, Todd tells us the origin of how he and his Mom became aware and involved with the coffee house scene which sparked an untapped passion in Todd that's lasted twelve years and is still going strong. You will be touched by his story and learn things about him that you never knew.

Thanks to Michael Patrick and Joe Iantosca for permission to use their song.
