Biography
The Fort Worth, TX, alternative rock four-piece called the Toadies formed in 1990 and trudged throughout the grunge-punk revival of the early '90s playing shows and issuing homemade tapes. Three years later Pleather was picked up by Grass/Interscope, but it wasn't until 1995 when the band scored big with their single "Possum Kingdom" from their mainstream breakthrough Rubberneck. Frontman Todd Lewis' angry vocals were fitting for the post-grunge scene swirling into a loop during that time and tours with Bush, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and the Butthole Surfers were motivating; however, the Toadies vanished.
