Biography
Ladd Biro comes to music naturally; his father played violin, his mother, piano, and he began piano lessons as a wee lad(d). He joined the school band playing sax, and as a teen, perhaps emulating his older brother, he formed a musical group made up of school chums. "We called it Duration," he recalls ruefully, "and it seemed like a cool name. Then along came a nasal spray by that name, and . . . well, it sort of lost its cool." He played bass in that band, and became proficient enough to later join his older brother's band. They later parted - amicably - but by then, music was his lifeblood, and he's never looked back.
Ladd Biro has long been known as an excellent sideman, variably as both a bassist and pianist, but more recently has gained widespread notice as a vocalist and songwriter. His breakout song - Reach Out! - has been praised by listeners and audiences; meanwhile, PD's at radio stations with divergent formats have also taken a liking to it.
Biro has again teamed with well-known songwriter Dan Schneider, who's penned a number of well-known songs in a variety of genres which include adult-contemporary, country, and national TV themes. Dan is a former staff writer with Acuff Rose/Sony ATV. When asked about working with Dan Schneider, Ladd responded "In my opinion, Dan's talent level is on par with David Foster"
Together, they have produced Ladd's second Album, 'Climb To The Top'. Like Ladd's first album (Isn't It Romantic) 'Climb To The Top' will be available at Barnes & Noble, Borders, and digitally at Itunes.com, Amazon.com, and a full gamut of internt platforms - with a percentage of sales going to support the Shriners Children's Hospitals. Look for it in stores February 1st!
