WE BECOME
by: REAGON, TOSHI / LAVA Toshi says: "I started working on the music in June 2008 by asking the performers questions about the work. Over the next few months I came to rehearsals and tried to become another line in the ensemble voice. It was very important to me that I did not dictate the movement. I want to be moved by their physicality and their emotional intention. This group is really bound- less so the music had to follow. I used many textures and genres of music. You will hear rock, folk, blues notes and even a little country. There are songs with text and songs without. This is some of my favorite music..." |

UNTIL WE'RE DONE

HAVE YOU HEARD
by: TOSHI REAGON On this disc, Toshi calls the listener back to the heart of rock and roll with a voice overflowing with raw emotion. Her Righteous Babe debut (and her sixth full length album overall), this studio album captures the infectious energy of her live shows. Supporting her earthy tenor and amazing ability to bend the guitar strings are members of her live band, Big Lovely, and a few special guests. From her rock platform, Toshi easily jumps from funk to country, spirituals to folk, taking any style, updating it and making it her own with ease. An uncompromising brew of artistic exuberance and exceptional talent! |

KINDNESS
by: TOSHI REAGON This album is pure Toshi: from ancient chants to urban blues, retro funk and rap - a rocker's intimate encounter with her roots. Relevant and revoluntionary, Toshi is widely known from the festival circuit and has built a very strong following in the NYC area. "...She's super hip...and deserves every single one of Ani Difranco's and Tracy Chapman's fans - and then some." (The Village Voice) |

JUSTICE
by: TOSHI REAGON Toshi's first album, recorded on the then Chicago based folk label Flying Fish, which is now part of Rounder Records. Highlights include Toshi's version of Sting's "Walking in Your Footsteps" and a song written by her mother, Bernice Johnson Reagon, "How Long." |
