About Shark Toys:
Shark Toys are a Southern California based band that began in the bedroom of Danny (vocals, guitar) and Rina (keys, guitar) in the summer of 2008. The band initially recorded only on single-track cassette tape and as a two piece but have since expanded to a four-piece. In January '09 enlisted the help of Greg Ashley (Gris Gris, Mirrors, Dutchess and the Duke) who played drums on and produced their debut EP (this record!). Since their inception they have toured the West Coast once and have shared the stage with Mika Miko, Crocodiles, Gris Gris, Calvin Johnson, Ty Segall, Fresh & Onlys, the Spits, Silver Apples, the Homosexuals, and others, and they played at the 2009 Part Time Punks Festival with the Raincoats, Section 25, Abe Vigoda, and others. Shark Toys are playing in San Francisco for the Noise Pop festival later this month and plan to tour the US and hopefully Europe this coming summer and fall.
