Los
Angeles, CA --- Multi-Grammy Award winning band TOTO has
announced the first set of dates for their Summer U.S. tour, which will begin
on June 2nd in Lake Charles, LA. The shows are billed as
"An Evening With Toto” and their performances will feature repertoire for
their latest studio album XIV, classic hits, and both band and fan
favorites from their vast catalog in performances that will stage two hours of
music. Last summer, Toto embarked their first U.S. headline run in over a
decade.
The
core Toto members, Steve Lukather, David Paich, Steve Porcaro, Joseph Williams
will be joined by Lenny Castro (percussion), Shannon Forest (drums), Shem von
Schroeck (bass), Warren Ham (saxophone, vocals). Guitarist Steve Lukather
shares, “We had such a great time last summer that we wanted to regroup and hit
some cities we didn’t get to last time. Always a thrill to bring our full
show around the country.”
Few
ensembles in the history of recorded music have individually or collectively
had a larger imprint on pop culture than the members of Toto.
As individuals, the band members can be heard on an astonishing 5000 albums
that together amass a sales history of a half a billion albums. Amongst
these recordings, NARAS applauded the performances with more than 200 Grammy
nominations and were inducted in to the Musicians Hall Of Fame in 2009.
With
close to 40 years together and literally thousands of credits, including the
biggest selling album of all time: Michael Jackson’s Thriller, and
accolades to their names, TOTO remains one of the top selling
touring and recording acts in the world. They are the benchmark by which many
artists base their sound and production, and they continue to transcend the
standards set by the entire music community, being simply synonymous with
musical credibility. Their repertoire continues to be current via high
profile usage on broadcast television. They are pop culture, and are one
of the few 70’s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles to a
career enjoy a multi-generational fan base.
In
2015, Toto released their first new studio album in ten years – TOTO XIV.
The album exhibited world-class musicianship, masterful arrangements, topical
lyrical commentary, and melodies that the collective talents of Lukather,
Paich, Porcaro, Williams and their assembled band-mates brought to life.
It debuted Top 10 in nine countries around the world and became their most
successful album since 1988 in the U.S. and UK.
In
2016 they released the Blu-Ray/DVD title Live At Montreux which
quickly charted Top Five or better around the globe as well. With the band’s 40th
Anniversary coming up in 2018, TOTO has major plans in the
works to celebrate their enduring career.
