Todd Richard Huth (born March 13, 1963)[1] is an American guitarist, best known as an original member of the band Primus, along with bassist/lyricist Les Claypool.
Huth and Claypool began playing together, along with a drum machine, in or around 1984, originally calling themselves Primate until about 1986 when they changed their band name to Primus.
With the lineup of Huth, Claypool, and Jay Lane, Primus became an underground sensation in and around San Francisco, prompting them to record a demo tape, Sausage, to distribute at their shows.
Huth still appears on Primus’ debut studio album, Frizzle Fry, playing acoustic guitar on a few tracks.
Following that project, Huth formed a band, Porch, with former Today Is The Day bassist Christopher Frey and former Samiam drummer Dave Ayer.
