TOBY LIGHTMAN CONCERT
Saturday, May 16 at LLM
In a world of auto-tune, Toby Lightman's pure and soulful
voice cuts through the noise. People Magazine has stated
that “No small talent... Toby Lightman continues to shine
a light on her knack for making rich, soulful pop”. From
her major label debut in 2004 to her current independent
spirit, Toby has mastered her own sophisticated urban pop.
With each song, recording or collaboration, Toby continues
to hone, craft and perfect her unique sound. And she’s
bringing that sound to the stage of Listen Live Music, your
community music organization!
Toby tours extensively, both solo and sharing the bill with
renowned artists such as Rob Thomas, Jewel, James Blunt,
Gavin DeGraw, Train, Marc Cohn, and one special evening
opening for the legendary Prince, an artist that Toby grew
up idolizing. Prince happened to be watching the night
Toby appeared on Conan and was so impressed with her
performance that he invited her to open for him.
Her music is featured on TV and in the movies - so much
so that she has been dubbed the "queen of TV and film."
Some of her songs used in television and films include
“Everyday” on Fox’s Bones, “Holding a Heart” in numerous
shows such as WB’s One Tree Hill, Vampire Diaries,
90210 as well as the feature film "What’s Your Number?"
Her winter evoking “Snow Day” was the soundtrack to a
KMart commercial. “Addicted” was used in the promos for
ABC’s Desperate Housewives series finale as well as the
trailer for the movie "Playing For Keeps". Amazingly, eight
of Toby's songs were highlighted in a single episode of the
ABC Family series "The Fosters". Most recently, Toby was
asked to write a song for the new American Girl film that will
be released this year.
Toby Lightman will be live in concert at Listen Live Music,
the Macungie Institute, 510 E Main St, Macungie PA. The
show is on Saturday, May 16, with
doors at 7:30 and music starting at
8pm. Tickets are general admission
and are only $20. Don’t miss your
chance to see this amazing talent
live and up close in LLM’s intimate,
beautiful listening room! For tickets
