International Toast introduced itself to the public in late 2005. The band was formed by founding members, John Petruzzelli and Stephen Harwood when recording their so-called hit single "Bubba Blues" on a webcam. Years later, Petruzzelli and Harwood discovered guitarist Daniel Healy, drummer Ben Ross and bassist Ben Harubin within the local music scene. After a year of playing and participation in a battle of the bands in 2006, Harubin dropped out of the line up. The next year, International Toast returned with new strength and won the New Hampshire state wide battle of the bands, "Kingswoodstock." As a prize, they received recording time at Thundering Sky studio in South Berwick, ME and air time on 98.3 WLNH. After a few months of writing and practicing, International Toast went into the studio the last week of June to record. Later that year, after many more visits to the studio for mixing, they released their first album, "Everybody's Dream," December 28th of 2007.
