Armed with electric guitars, top notch songs, and a name taken from a Monty Python sketch, Toad The Wet Sprocket took the music world by storm. With five albums produced between nineteen eighty nine and nineteen ninety eight, and over four million records sold, Toad The Wet Sprocket left an indelible mark on the radio waves of the 1990’s. They struck a chord with audiences through an expert mix of pop songwriting, mellower acoustic feel, and the anxious urgency of grunge. Despite disbanding in nineteen ninety eight, Glenn Phillips, Todd Nichols, Dean Dinning, and Randy Guss have continued to work and perform together. In 2009, Toad The Wet Sprocket officially reformed and hit the ground running; writing, performing, and releasing two albums in 2013. This new, reformed Toad has taken a fresh, DIY approach to it’s production and release, putting out music for free and crowdsourcing the funds for recording and pressing. They’ve adapted as readily to the current climate of the music industry as they did to the atmosphere in the early nineties. Twenty four years, and a long hiatus later, Toad The Wet Sprocket are making some of the best records of their career. Concert Tickets $35, $45, $55
