New Toto Album 2015

Postby Kurtis » Wed Nov 06, 2013 8:22 pm

Can't wait for this release. Steve said the band is done not to long ago. Well someone did years ago. Looks like things are good. Boom! Who's gonna be on vocals? Hopefully Steve. Great tone. More Simon Phillips. This is great news. Huge Toto fan here

I guess the topic is kind of like to far in the future to be relevant.

They've suddenly become more popular than ever, even with critics, so it looks like all is well again with Toto. My guess is that Joseph will be singing, as well as Steve of course.

Steve Lukather wrote:"The crowds have been amazing and the gigs are packed too which is VERY encouraging for us. Our new management team with our new agents have also made a HUGE difference! Having a team excited to work with us, new ideas, new gigs coming our way, hungry to make it happen for us. We are re-building and re-branding Toto! It seems to be working and no one is more happy than US!

Having said that under the circumstances we are carrying on. Toto in 2013 is probably the best it has been since I can remember. There are many reasons for this. Everyone is very healthy and brings 1000 % every night and as it was only going to be ONE Summer Tour in 2010. We had so much fun and the reaction was SO positive by the fans, the reviews, the attendance at the gigs! It was the same with 2011 and 2012. It now has us all . For now I can say we have the DVD we are almost done mixing and editing and will be out in Spring 2014. There will be a Worldwide Tour in 2014 including MUCH more USA. We have really felt amazing response and we have better ticket sales in the USA in decades. Best live reviews of our career bar none! That sure is nice for a change! (as Luke laughs). The fans reactions have been across the board amazing. So the people have spoken and we are listening. It would be crazy not to carry on. The Music Biz is so fucked up and to have this opportunity to 'start over' and to be able to tour and do so well has been a shot in the arm for us all. I can say myself after 36 plus years I am more appreciative of my career than ever. We all are. We all realize what an amazing gift Toto is to us and we also have a sense of humor about the crazy career we have had. It is truly extraordinary."

Sources? Saw the Luke comment, but not exactly official.

In winter, the band also release a new album. It confirmed the guitarist and frontman Steve Lukather (pictured) to Moss Avis, when we met him in Oslo this weekend.

The band has not released new material since 2006, so news will definitely enjoy Toto large fan base worldwide.

- We just received the offer and have decided to do it. I never thought it would happen, but in 2014 there will be new material Toto, Lukather said.

PLEASE have at least one song with those classic TOTO background vocals on Let it Go from FIB!
That maintains the old with the new.
