Local artists show resiliency
COREY MCMAKEN | The Journal Gazette
Local musician Todd Harrold says that, like many people, he had “a real weird year” in 2020 as he wondered how he was going to pay bills, keep his house and support his family. The 56-year-old has relied on drum lessons and music gigs to make a living since 2003.
After the pandemic's initial shutdowns, Harrold was able to play a good number of shows July through October, but then everything started to shut down again as COVID-19 positivity rates increased late in 2020.
An example of his weird year: He recently performed at The Club Room at the Clyde and realized he forgot what order to put everything in the car so all his gear would fit.
