Few bands have earned the kind of devotion Toad the Wet Sprocket inspires. Since forming in Santa Barbara in 1986 — four friends, Glen Phillips, Todd Nichols, Dean Dinning, and Randy Guss, met in a high school theater group and named themselves after a fictional Monty Python band. The band has spent four decades making music that, as Phillips himself puts it, reaches toward the light even when there's shadow in it. Their debut album, Bread & Circus, recorded DIY-style in a tract home for just $600, caught the attention of Columbia Records and launched a career defined by an uncompromising independent spirit. That spirit paid off: Fear (1991) went platinum and spawned top-20 hits “All I Want” and “Walk on the Ocean,” followed by a second platinum album, Dulcinea (1994), featuring fan favorites “Fall Down” and “Windmills.”
Their music became the soundtrack to a generation — turning up in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dawson's Creek, Empire Records, and the platinum-selling Friends soundtrack — and their fans never left. “It's like a reunion of sorts,” says Dean Dinning. “It's almost like having family in the audience every night.”
