Koyo, who played Bass in Brokenspace, started “totos†as a solo-project in order to produce some songs he had wrote.
It was just a private project recording a home-demo without any advertisement.
It was a turning point when they were offered a gig. He gathered four people to be members. Although they didn’t have any CDs, some people asked them to play at gigs because of their good music.
They had some shows at clubs and were hoping to release CDs. At that time, they recorded “Girl†and “You made†into a sampler CD with other bands on their label “Thistimerecordâ€. These songs weren’t well-known, but they were appreciated very much.
They finally started recording in spring 2006. At the same time, they had a tour to support some groups on the same label, Skybeaver (JP) and Beezewas (NR), and will support all shows of The Wellingtons (AU) in Japan in December.
The main vocals were fixed as Koyo and Yuko, and they found their own sound. In October 2006, they finished recording. In January 2007 first album “totos mini†will be released, and they have planned to do 10 shows throughout Japan at the same time. Besides, they have started recording a full-length CD to be released in autumn 2007.
You can’t take your eyes off them…
