Toth

About Me

During the winter of 2004, Jan-Dirk and Johan came up with the idea to start an original South African Rock Band. A challenging four-month expedition followed - recruiting a womb of spring-talent, bearing contribution to this idea.Near the end of 2004, the band TOTH was born from the artistic union of five musicians: Jan-Dirk and Ervin on guitars, Johan on bass, Ruan on drums, and Héniel doing the vocals. This creative combination of talented musicians engraves a unique melodic sound on progressive rock - sometimes even upon a slice of older stone or metal.TOTH recorded a promotion-demo during December 2004, followed by Barney Simon playing Creating Within on his 5FM radio program The Night Zoo. Various live performances followed - ranging from Emperors Palace to the Blues Room. Through rough storms and turbulent tides, TOTHs flair kept soaring with vibrant sound.In May 2005, JP de Stefani of B sharp Studios recorded TOTHs first single - The Doubleness. The rest of the year was devoted to a variety of live shows.At the beginning of 2006 things really started to take off. Stage Magazine reviewed TOTHs music with a three out of five (3/5) rating. The Doubleness received airplay on a radio station in the area of Joliet, Chicago Illinois (USA), and even got requested a few times on the same station.On the 8th of March 2006, TOTH preformed with South African artists Karen Zoid and Chris Chameleon at the Kultuurskok-Music Festival. After the show, TOTH retreated into hibernation - preparing for its first EP.At First Breeze has been recorded by Guy & Jay of Bizac Studios in Johannesburg.In August, unfortunately, JD and Ruan decided to leave the band as they felt they were called to follow another road.NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS NEWS:: ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------TOTH has a MUSOTOPIA ACCOUNT!
