Toad The Wet Sprocket
Toad the Wet Sprocket is an American alternative rock band formed in 1986 in Santa Barbara, California. The band gained prominence in the early 1990s with a string of successful albums, including Fear and Dulcinea, which featured hits like "All I Want" and "Walk on the Ocean." Their sound is characterized by melodic arrangements, introspective lyrics, and the distinctive voice of lead singer Glen Phillips. The band's name, humorously borrowed from a Monty Python sketch, reflects their quirky, unconventional approach to music.
Despite disbanding in 1998, Toad the Wet Sprocket reunited in 2006 and has continued to tour and release new music. Their thoughtful songwriting and polished sound have earned them a dedicated following, with their music resonating through themes of self-discovery, love, and human connection. Their continued relevance in the alternative rock scene is a testament to their enduring appeal and musical versatility.
