The Carpet Frogs are probably the most seen and heard band in Canada that relatively few are aware of. For years the veteran musicians who make up the band, whose personal pedigrees have them listed as members of some of the best known bands in the country's history, have been working under this name, but are still best known as the band who back up Burton Cummings on his tours. In 2006, they hit every major market in the country backing up Burton and his musical partner Randy Bachman on their highly successful "FIRST TIME AROUND" tour, and are now doing the same thing in select American markets as The Bachman * Cummings band. The new album is full of one pop gem after another, and the first single, Lies, should firmly establish them as a radio airplay staple for the simple reason that it is just that damn good.

It would'nt be complete it if the Frogs didn't perform at WOODSTOCK Canadian style...I know of a few bands that claim to be in..Supposibly there will be 86 acts that weekend..2 groups per hour
Helloooooo to the Carpet Frogs. Don't forget to try to come down to Toronto sometime. Would love to come see you. Been checking your website and it says "2009 STAY TUNED", so you must be getting close. Cheers for now.
Jeff, if you are playing in Barrie again let me know; I would have gone and seen you at McReilys pub! Put up a bulletin or something on your Frogs page.
