Bongo Island is in distress! An album of music is the only thing that can save them. Get Toy Volcano now and embark upon a magical musical adventure.
Toy Volcano was composed using a mixture of hand built electronic instruments, ukulele, various sampling programs, and funkamatic bass all weaved together under the idea that the music should shine as bright as the costume.
Below are demo videos for some of the unique instruments built for this album. Enjoy! and feel free to email me with any questions, comments, ideas, offers for Nigerian money, or what have you.

IT's FINALLY MORNING AGAIN!

Your music makes me smile on a daily basis. There's nothing quite like listening to the Zoo Band on a Friday afternoon on my way home from work while sitting in my favorite seat on the bus! Keep it catchy!
Is that CGI, or did you really bleach your hair for your "We Built This City" music video? Is that Photoshop, or do you really have a kid now? Congrats to you and your growing family!!! Thinking about heading west sometime soon, we should link up.
I just received the package you sent moments ago, so I haven't listened to the new album yet, but thank you THANK YOU! The gift was super cool. Here's to the future!
