Bio
Toddler was born with the release of "Mommies Little Boy,” (2015). "Mommies Little Boy," was recorded exclusively with a Casiotone 202 from 1981 (the world's second Casio keyboard) and drums were created by thumping a bucket, hitting a metal tray and shaking a jar of spice. The vocals use parallel octaves and rich harmonies with lyrics that are painstakingly honest. Mixed by Caila Thompson-Hannant of Mozart’s Sister.
In May of 2016 Toddler’s second album, ”Girls on My Mind," was recorded. "Girls on My Mind," uses the same Casio keyboard and makeshift percussion as "Mommies Little Boy,” but with the addition of a second keyboard (Yamaha PortaSound PS-3 from 1981) and a cheap electric guitar bought at a pawnshop. The album was recorded in a mini-van and mixed and produced by Toddler.
Throughout the summer of 2016 Toddler toured Ontario, Quebec and British Columbia then released ”Girls on My Mind,” in September.
