JUNIOR TOOTS

Junior Toots, son of the legendary Toots Hibbert of Toots & The Maytals was born and raised in St Mary, Jamaica. Junior Toots began singing stage shows at a young age touring internationally with his late father Toots Hibbert who was a mainstay reggae artist on the world stage for over twenty years. Junior Toots has an ever-growing fan base as he has been captivating audiences of all ages far and wide with his electrifying high-energy performances, soul-filled vocals and socially relevant lyrics. His music is up tempo ska and reggae which generates great crowd responses.

In the midst of the current social turmoil, Junior Toots stays positive and focused on his music career and on being the change he wishes to see. From 1997 until 2020 Junior Toots toured with his father Toots and the Maytals, performing some of his own songs such as “Holding Firm,” and “Jah Give Us Victory,” as well as doings some of his father’s songs such as “Funky Kingston” and “54 46”. He has also been steadily recording his own material as well as working on collaborations with other artists. Junior Toots has released five albums called Crown of Fire, Reggae Got Soul, Junior Toots and the Stronghold, A Little Bit of Love and Guidance Star. A Little Bit of Love hit #10 on the NACC World Charts. Junior Toots has also released many singles such as “Heart of the City” with GRW, “Physically Spiritually”, “His Name” with Akwerius and “Sweet and Dandy”, which was a tribute to his father. The idea to record “Sweet and Dandy” came from Toots Sr. who produced the track for his son which was released on December 8, 2020 to mark the day that would have been the 78th birthday for the recently transitioned Toots Hibbert or “Nyah” as he was called by his family. Other singles include “Green Lights” with GRW “Love The Herbs” and “Love Is The Best”

Sept 1, 2022 Junior Toots released the single, “Fayah Fi Di Wicked” featuring King Kanashi from the Virgin Islands and Blessed San from Uganda on his Crown of Fire Record Label. About the new single, Junior Toots shares, “This is a universal collaboration talking about the stress and frustration that the whole world is feeling – This is a prayer for the sick, this is prayer for the poor, this is a prayer for the people them living outdoors. This is a prayer for the poor, this is a prayer for the sick. Prayers for the people them living in the sticks”

Junior Toots songs are featured on movie and tv sound tracks such as Justice, which was re-named Youth Suffer, which was on Luke Cage (Netflix), The Wannabe (Electric Entertainment), Unfinished Business (Century Fox), Wetlands (Sundance Film Festival), Nuit De La Glisse / Addicted to Life.

Junior Toots has performed on many festivals including The Sierra Nevada World Music Fest, Reggae on the River, Reggae on the Mountain, San Francisco Reggae Fest, Bethlehem Pennsylvania Steal Fest, Reggae in the Hills, Musik Fest and The Seattle Hempfest.

Having the essence of Jamaica, a strong love for Jah and the Rastafarian culture, Junior Toots expresses the wisdom of his life-learning’s in his music and his live shows and in everyday life.

“I aim to continue spreading peace among people of all creeds, religions and color through my music and philanthropic missions. After witnessing so much violence in my homeland, I vowed at an early age to promote goodness, fairness and equality in all I do and with those I am blessed to work with. It’s what drives the music I write and present to the world,”…… Junior Toots

A Note About Dogs
While Winrock Park is normally dog-friendly, we strongly encourage guests to consider leaving their dogs at home for Harvest Fest Afterglow. The concert will be louder than a typical park event, the area near the stage may become crowded, and the balloon glow may be stressful for some dogs. The grass area directly in front of the stage will be standing room only. Adoptable shelter dogs participating in the event will remain in a separate, controlled area with their handlers. Guests who choose to bring their dogs should plan to stay farther from the stage and balloon activity where there is more space and less noise. Dogs must remain leashed and under their owner’s control at all times.

Harvest Fest Afterglow is part of Harvest Fest at Winrock Park on Saturday, October 24.

TRISH TOLEDO

From Carson, California, a community south of Los Angeles, Trish Toledo was born into an Ecuadorian-Guatemalan family with much older siblings. Their musical tastes – plus the influence of her father, who was a musician – provided her with access to music that existed long before her time. Although the first music she sang was cumbias and ballads, she discovered that it was the timeless pop and soul ballads that she felt most connected to. “The lyrics were so simple and the performances so raw and clean,” she remembers.

While her father’s musical influences permeated her childhood, it was his “musician’s life” that accounted for his absence from the family. Subsequently, when she became a teen parent herself, Trish put her own musical aspirations on hold to offer undivided attention as a mother. In May 2017, now old enough to realize his mother’s formidable vocal abilities, it was her 11-year son that noted the void in his mom’s life, as he encouraged her to reestablish her musical journey.

Exploring a classic catalog of material, Trish selects songs to record based on how the themes most faithfully mirror her life experiences. ”What I have gone through, or am going through,” she says. She prefers to record much like her predecessors did – in one take, all the way through, without punch ins and overdubs. Her cross-generational audiences include both older listeners who grew up with the type of songs she sings, to young fans for whom this music is brand new.

When she is not performing or recording, Trish explores art shows. She is especially interested in the vibrant visuals of Chicano art, and her multiple tattoos bear visual testimony to her appreciation of shapes and colors.Trish Toledo does what she does best: sings, performs, and connects a historic line between the music of an earlier era, and the audiences of today. “People are so happy that I’m reviving this music,” Trish concludes. “ Bringing it back – so that a new generation gets to hear this.”
