Toy Soldiers

Toy Soldiers was born in the fall of 2007 as a duo between Ron Gallo and drummer Mike Baurer. The release of their first album "Whisper Down the Lane", described as a "gritty, dirty collection of liquor-fueled Americana music. Shifting flawlessly from roots, to blues, to country, to rockabilly…an undeniable barn-burner" marked the beginning of the "big-band era" of Toy Soldiers, which Gallo was joined by upwards of 11 members at times. In the fall of 2010, inspired by a disastrous tour, Gallo stepped back and reformed the band to a solid core lineup consisting of Lancaster, PA based musicians Dominic Billett (Drums), Matt Kelly (Guitar), Bill McCloskey (Bass) and Luke Leidy (Keys).
Since then, the band was nominated in three categories and won an Independent Music Award for "Best Blues Song" for their song "Throw Me Down", toured behind and released a brand new EP titled "Get Through the Time", and recorded a split EP in Nashville with good friend and songwriter Jordan Hull to be released in 2011.
