About Toto: The Architects of Enduring Sound

Toto’s legacy is etched in the annals of music history, a testament to their enduring appeal and unparalleled talent. Formed in Los Angeles in 1977, the band brought together a collective of session musicians whose individual prowess was already legendary. Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Jeff Porcaro (drums, percussion – sadly passed in 1992, but his spirit and influence remain), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Bobby Kimball (vocals), and Mike Porcaro (bass – also sadly passed) formed the core of a musical powerhouse. Their debut album, released in 1978, immediately showcased their remarkable ability to blend complex musical arrangements with accessible, radio-friendly songwriting.

Their musical style is a sophisticated fusion, characterised by intricate instrumental passages, lush vocal harmonies, and a knack for crafting infectious melodies. They are masters of the studio, yet their live performances are electrifying, proving their ability to translate their polished recordings into raw, dynamic energy. This versatility has allowed them to remain relevant across changing musical landscapes. Toto’s career is studded with accolades, including multiple Grammy Awards, and their songs have become fixtures on radio airwaves and in film soundtracks for over forty years.

Some of their most celebrated hits that are sure to echo through Auditorio Telmex include the iconic “Africa,” a global phenomenon whose enigmatic lyrics and infectious rhythm have made it an enduring anthem. The power ballad “I Won’t Hold You Back” showcases their emotional depth and vocal prowess. Get ready for the irresistible groove of “Rosanna,” a track that perfectly encapsulates their blend of rock and funk, and the anthemic “Hold the Line,” a timeless rock staple. Other beloved tracks likely to feature in their setlist include the soulful “Georgy Porgy,” the driving “Stop Loving You,” the soaring “Never Enough,” and the poignant “Pamela.” Each song is a masterclass in songwriting and performance, promising a night filled with singalong moments and pure musical bliss.
