Toto - “The Dogz of Oz” Tour 2022

Over the past several years, TOTO have had a major renaissance in popularity like few bands at this point in their career. Few ensembles in the history of recorded music have individually or collectively had a larger imprint on pop culture than the members of TOTO. As individuals, the band members can be heard on an astonishing 5000 albums that together amass a sales history of a half a billion albums. Amongst these recordings, NARAS applauded the performances with more than 200 Grammy nominations.

Collectively TOTO has over three billion streams worldwide on all streaming services. Over the last few years, ‘Africa’ went from being a Platinum single to being recently recertified 8X Platinum, with over a billion streams for that song alone. The band has found a new generation of fans. With now 45+ years together and literally thousands of credits, including the biggest selling album of all time: Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’, and accolades to their names, TOTO remains one of the top selling touring and recording acts in the world. They are the benchmark by which many artists base their sound and production, and they continue to transcend the standards set by the entire music community, being simply synonymous with musical credibility.

They are pop culture, and are one of the few 1970s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles continuing to remain relevant while enjoying their multi-generational global fan base. The global tour that will commence in 2022 will stretch several years, and is presented by TOTO co-founder and musical director David Paich. Joining Steve Lukather and Joseph Williams on the road are new band members bassist John Pierce (Huey Lewis and The News), drummer Robert “Sput” Searight (Ghost-Note), and keyboardist / background vocalist Steve Maggiora (Robert Jon & The Wreck). Keyboardist Dominique “Xavier” Taplin (Prince, Ghost-Note) and multi-instrumentalist / vocalist Warren Ham (Ringo Starr) segued over continuing their tenure in the ensemble. This marks the fifteenth incarnation of the Toto line-up in consideration of band members or sidemen who joined or exited.
