I am so excited to announce that my HOLDING A HEART EP is finally up and available in Itunes! I would love for you to take a listen and let me know what you think! This release is the 5 songs from Girl Named Toby along with 3 BONUS tracks AND a digital booklet that I designed with my good friend Josh Fischer. (Check out his work at joshfischerdesign.com) All of this spawned from the success of the title track HOLDING A HEART which was featured on One Tree Hill, Vampire Diaries, Switched at Birth, 90210 and more! Enjoy!

I am so excited to announce that I am ALMOST ready to re-release the EP named after the title track “Holding a Heart”!! I have been wanting to do this for a while, and now I am finally able to bring this project into the Toby Lightman world. The EP will be released with 3 bonus tracks and my first digital booklet ever!! Stay Tuned!

I also want to let you know that one of the bonus tracks, the stripped version of “Holding A Heart” is exclusively available as a single on Reverbnation.com. Half of the proceeds from every download go to the amazing charity HALFTHESKYMOVEMENT.ORG, which puts all their efforts into putting an end to the oppression of women and girls worldwide. A little bit goes a long way and I’m thrilled to have my song connected to such a worthy cause. So get your download now and feel good!

January 23, 2013

Hey folks! So excited to say that “Holding a Heart” has done it again. It aired on CW’s 90210. I hope this song keeps getting featured for the rest of eternity! I’m so in love with it and love when songs that were written from a purely creative and emotional place get recognized. Keep ‘em coming and tell your friends to get a copy!

Hi all!
I am so excited to announce my first online show through Stage It! For those of you who don’t know, Stage It is an online venue that allows musicians to stream LIVE, super intimate concerts often from their homes, or in my case, my NYC apartment. It’s a great platform for me to finally play for so many of you who I haven’t seen in a while. I have missed you all so much and am so looking forward to playing for you again!

Aside from playing for all of you amazing people, the inspiration for this show is the victims of Hurricane Sandy. As a New Yorker, I want to do my part for my amazing city and home for the past 13 years. Living uptown, I was out of harm’s way, but so many of my native New Yorkers lost so much. Let’s help them out by giving what you can! It all helps!

Coming to this show is as easy as 1-2-3!

1. Simply click on the link below and click to purchase a ticket. Set up an account and purchase credits, or what Stage It calls “Notes” (10 Notes = $1.00) (Purchase additional notes if you wanna give me a tip for being AWESOME! or to spend attending other shows in the future!)

2. Then come 8pm on Nov. 18, grab a drink from the fridge, log into your stage it account.

3. Enjoy the show!

I will be there performing LIVE from my living room. Welcome to my home!

xo,
Toby

Showcase Showdown

September 21, 2012

Hey kids! You guessed it.. I got hitched! Tied the knot. Took the plunge. Jumped the broom. Hooked up the ball and chain. I can’t think of any others.. It was a magical weekend and I’ll post pics as soon as I can organize the mass amounts of photos taken by friends and fam… So by early next year..

In the meantime, it’s onward and upward. Gotta get this new album off the ground. Folks, I’m gonna be real.. This is my best album yet. I’m so excited about it, I could pee myself.  There will be no hurdles in my way, I’m making it my ‘thirdlife’ goal to get as many peeps to hear it as I can. So let’s make a pact.. Let’s do this together.. Koombaya.  I’ve got some ideas that I’m gonna throw at you over the next few weeks and I hope you’re down to go down this road together. I have the greatest fans and I know with your help, we can take over the world. So as a married lady, I say,  Let’s get back to basics! Let good music prevail!

I have two shows coming up (with more to come I hope!) and I’d love to see you there. I’ve worked hard at putting together a kickass band and I think you’ll be very happy with the outcome. So come on down to the Price is Right!  This is the showcase showdown! (it’s late…)
