Backstory:

Spirited Toad was born in the heart of Austin, Texas, as four coffeehouse baristas shared a mutual love of music and the desire to create something unique. The eclectic quartet, comprising of Jenny Bell on vocals and tambourine, Tim “T-Bone” Miller on bass guitar, ‘Crazy’ Carl Jenkins on lead guitar and harmonica, and Rosie ‘The Rocket’ Adams on drums, initially found their audience in small-time venues and local festivals. After a chance encounter with a talent scout in 2018, they exploded onto the national stage, quickly gathering a devoted fan base with their soulful performances and innovative sound.

‘Moonlit Bay’

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am
Underneath the moonlit bay,
G
We sang our hearts away,
F
In the silence of the night,
C
Our dreams took flight.

(Chorus)
Am
Moonlit Bay, where we used to play,
G
Moonlit Bay, we’ll meet again someday,
F
In the echoes of the waves,
C
Our love engraves.

(Verse 2)
Am
By the rustling of the reeds,
G
We shared our deepest needs,
F
In the whispers of the wind,
C
Our tales were pinned.

(Chorus)
Am
Moonlit Bay, beneath the Milky Way,
G
Moonlit Bay, where we promised to stay,
F
In the rhythm of the tide,
C
Our bond did ride.

Favorite Fan:

Spirited Toad’s number one fan is a 24-year-old, Boston-based artist named Lucy Brown. She loves the band for their raw, emotional lyrics and their unique blend of indie and blues rock. She says, “Spirited Toad has a way of making you feel seen, heard, and understood. Their song ‘Moonlit Bay’ is my all-time favorite. It’s as if they’ve somehow captured the essence of longing and spun it into a beautiful, melancholic melody. I’ve seen them live five times and each performance was a cathartic experience. They bring a certain sincerity to the stage that’s rare in today’s music scene.”
