Toto - Short Biography

Toto is an American rock band that formed in 1977 in Los Angeles. The current lineup includes Steve Lukather on guitar and vocals, David Paich on keyboards and vocals, and Joseph Williams on vocals, along with other touring musicians. Toto's music combines various genres such as pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues and jazz. The band has released 14 studio albums and sold over 40 million records worldwide, earning them several Grammy Awards and induction into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009. Their fourth album Toto IV (1982) brought them international fame and helped them become one of the most successful music groups of their time. The band's lineup has changed over the years, with departures and reappearances, and the death of one member. In 2010, Toto reformed for a short European tour, and in 2020, they announced a tour and live-streaming concert for 2021.
