Centered in Oakland, California, The Big La (a.k.a. Todd Kelley) has been concocting beats and loops since the age of 9. Using a MacBook Pro with Apple Logic Pro, "The Big La" relies heavily on loops in his production.
Currently, The Big La complete his latest CD "Water. Under The Bridge", and is continuing and open-ended collaboration with singer/songwriter Doyle Robinson for "The Rhythm Teachers" Project. Also he is the founder of a collaboration entitled C3, a jazz/soul/hip-hop fusion group collaboration entirely over the web.
