TOAD THE WET SPROCKET IN CONCERT:
In 2013
beloved alt-rockers Toad the Wet Sprocket released their first album of new material in more than 15 years, and proved they've lost none of their energy or melodic sense with a series of electrifying shows. Frontman Glen Phillips and his bandmates can nail a harmony with the best of them, and they're musicianship really shines on cuts from the new album like "The Moment". While the band is excited about the new release, fans of their earlier work have nothing to worry about -- Toad the Wet Sprocket's sets consistently top the two hour mark, and their upcoming dates with Counting Crows will feature all their classic hits including "All I Want" and "Good Intentions".
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Toad the Wet Sprocket was formed in 1986 by a group of high school friends in Santa Barbara, CA. The band achieved modest success on college radio with early albums like Bread & Circus (1989) and Pale (1990), but it wasn't until the 1991 release of their third album Fear that they really broke through to the mainstream. Top 20 singles "All I Want" and "Walk on the Ocean" propelled the album to platinum sales, paving the way for extensive touring throughout the US and Europe. Their follow-up album Dulcinea in 1994 was a similar success, scoring the band their first chart-topper with "Fall Down". After breaking up in 1998 the band reassembled periodically over the years to play shows, and in 2009 they reunited full-time to begin work on a new album. The result was 2013's New Constellation, a critical and commercial success that marked their return to the charts and set the stage for continued touring.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"Toad the Wet Sprocket sound as good now, or better than they ever did. Great show with audience interaction - fantastic harmonizing - GO SEE THEM!"
"They sounded great and seemed happy and enthusiastic to be playing together again. The playlist included all the old greats and several from their latest release, which sounded even better live."
"Great show! The band played a mix of songs from the old stuff and new album. Kicked it off with "The Moment", best song from the new album. Fans sang along the whole way through."
Toad the Wet Sprocket never disappoints. I discovered them in the 90's, so the music has some nostalgia for me. The lyrics can be deep, silly, comforting, and/or challenging. They hit topics like love, politics, the environment, philosophy, spirituality, and a bit of nonsense. This was the first Toad experience for my husband, and I'm so glad I was able to share my favorite musicians with him.
Another great Toad concert. Verve Pipe was a great opener. Toad played a great set. Sounded great.
First time at Ponte Vedra Concert Hall. Great little venue and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Older crowd but I was there to see Toad the Wet Sprocket. I'm 47 and was among the younger attendees. Great show and experience. I will definitely return to PVCH.
Great experience! I love this venue and the band! Very good sound and performance from the band members.
This is a must see band. I have seen them three times this year, and it isn't enough.
Verve Pipe was great but Toad was amazing- better than they’ve sounded in 20 years. Great show!
The acoustic set in the lobby was fabulous! The band was so nice and funny! The meet and greet went very smooth and not rushed. The show itself was great! Can’t wait to see them again. The Vogel as a venue is lovely as well. All and all a fantastic event!
I love them - so good to see them again after almost 20 years, and in such a great venue. It was perfect!
Toad is a fun band to see live. This was my first time, but I do follow them on social media. They are a touring band for sure and they always bring fun supporting acts with them. The verve pipe was also a great time. Total class acts. Played great music and then came into the lobby to meet the fans. A total package for fun.
The verve pipe opening band was great. They rocked the house and were really entertaining. Toad the wet sprocket harmonies and show were great and the evening lineup with the two bands was well put together. Thank you!
I love this band--since the 90's I've been a huge fan! I've attended a few shows from S Florida to St. Augustine and Atlanta and they do not disappoint. Venue was nice as well --recently renovated--nice looking now.
We had a meet and great to start, along with pictures and signings. Band was patient with the crowd and lots of fun. Toad played a wide range of their music, spanning many albums. Great list, great show, great venue.
TOAD put on an amazing show in Red Bank. Lots of fun and an intimate venue. Can't wait to see them again!
They sound great. Lead singer sounds exactly the same. Acoustic bluegrass was the highlight but all great.
These guys are so humble and down to earth and such a wonderful band in general. They put on a great show and would definitely see them again in a heartbeat!
The venue was a little small . however, it was enough for the crowd. The music was great both bands did an awesome job
Toad the Wet Sprocket was amazing last night at Royal Oak Music Theater! The crowd and the band were having a blast! One of the best concerts in a long time!
The Venue, amazing! The Verve Pipe, awesome! Toad The Wet Sprocket, 💯!
Seeing Toad the Wet Sprocket live never disappoints! I could see them a million times and enjoy it just the same as it was the first time.
I love Toad the Wet Sprocket (they may be my favorite band and I appreciate them more all the time) and they did not disappoint. They sounded amazing and loved seeing them in a smaller venue. A visit from Darius Rucker was a fun surprise too!
