Toast's video for the TV show 'America's Got Talent!'

Special thanks to videographer Greg Marsh for his talent and time

 

 

Toast plays a variety of original, contemporary, and classic rock music that includes a  wide range of uptempo, dancable, edgy, modern, alternative, and catchy tunes.

We are now in our fifth year, playing at places such as Gabe's Backstage Lounge, Hanson Brother's Tavern in Northfield, Grandpa's at the Depot, and Potato Creek Johnnie's in Glenview, C.J. Arthur's in Wilmette, and Teddy O’Brien’s in Highwood, Landmark Inn of Northbrook, Johnny O’Hagan’s in Wrigleyville, the Morton Grove Days 4th of July Festival, Evanston's Hotel Orrington, Tommy Nevins Live, and The 1800 Club, Indian Hill Country Club, the new Wilmette Theater opening, many private parties, a video shoot for the TV show 'America's Got Talent!', and have even opened for Collective Soul at The Rave, a multi-staged large concert venue in Milwaukee!

 

We're having a rockin' good time, and you, our friends, make it the best ever... 
 

We appreciate our many friends and supporters. 

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
