More Information
In recent years, the soundtrack to coastal life has taken on many forms. From the laid- back island folk of Jack Johnson to the reggae-infused punk rock of Sublime, beach- inspired music has gone in vastly different directions.
In comes Bag of Toys, an acoustic surf-rock band from Northern California, that has emerged on the music scene with a completely original, infectious sound that is drenched in the sun and sand.
The foundation all began when lead vocalist Robert Tait began writing songs at the age of fourteen. The Pacific Ocean lured him out to San Francisco, and in late 2003, he found musical support in the melodic guitar playing of band member Steve Cowgill. Seeking to fill out the sound, the duo perused the internet for a rhythm section and found the perfect fit with Joe Schewe holding a bass and Robert Stadler behind a drum set. The foursome spent the summer of 2004 in Tait's apartment molding his early creations into the addicting sound that has become known as Bag of Toys.
