Baird has collaborated with artists from many various music genres, including Edie Brickell, Everlast, Evanescence (provided programming for their debut album "Fallen"), Colin Hay, Daniel Powter, Mike Dillon, and Stone Gossard. He was auditioned for Nine Inch Nails: {{cquote|I never even met Trent Reznor. I just played along with a prerecorded tape. They had this work area set up where there were no other musicians to play along with, and the guys in the band all sat up in this dark balcony area where I couldn't even see them. Or, at least I think they were up there. It was just weird.[3]}}He was also auditioned for the Grammy-awarded alternative artist Beck, he describes it as great experience: {{cquote|Trying out for Beck's band was great. He was just set up in this cool little room, and we jammed on five or six of his songs.[3]}}Baird had toured with pop singer and pianist, Daniel Powter in Europe in 2005.[3] He has worked with the band Korn, touring with them worldwide as a masked horse ( Which in turn, he got his nickname "Horse") in See You on the Other Side tour, as well as in their 2006 edition of Family Values Tour. He has temporarily joined the band for their eighth studio album. Collaboration with Korn and his previous projects was quite a difference for him: {{cquote|This has really been a trip. I've been working here all day long every day at the band's rehearsal space at S.I.R. Studios in Hollywood, just learning every song and getting used to all of this amazing gear.[3]}}On December 9, 2006 Baird performed with the band on Korn playing piano. After the Bitch We Got A Problem Tour, Baird continued to work with KoRn frontman Jonathan Davis on his Alone I Play tour as a part of his backing band SFA.
