Toyboat

Toyboat is a filk band from the Chicago area. Its members are Eric Coleman, Daniel Gunderson, Jason Neerenberg, Mike Nixon, and David Stowell.

Take classic rock, hard edged 70s British style blues rock and 80s
hard rock, add filk and you have Toyboat. They play a combination of
classic filk songs in a style you have never heard them done on before
as well as their own SF-F songs. They mash-up filk lyrics with songs
you know. Some of their songs are serious, some are funny, some are
just odd. They have brought their show to conventions all over the
Midwest. They have made ears ring on stages, in meetings rooms, and at
room parties. Individually, the members of the band have played at
conventions, filk circles, coffee houses, clubs and basements all over
the US. There is no safe minimum distance. Do not panic, do not try to
run. Just repeat after me ... Toyboat ... Toyboat ... Toyboat.
