Artist History The Toothless Hair started in the early 90's. As a side project. Punk was way underground and Grunge was still a thought in some fat cat record executives dirty little mind. The Toothless Hair was started so Todd and his buddies could have something new to listen to. Even though Punk Rock was Todd's favorite kind of music, he just wanted to do something fresh and exciting. The Toothless Hair was just what the Dr. ordered. When grunge was building new mansion's, The Toothless Hair was burning them down! When The Toothless Hair started recording, CD's were way outta reach so The Toothless Hair did cassette releases. The album that you are able to dowload here is the only Toothless Hair recording that ever made it to CD. The Toothless Hair eneded in 1994.
