The Sydney based lads built a snowball from their live shows and high rotation radio play on Triple J and community radio, as well as a leg up from high profile spots on TV ads and major network shows.

Discography
2. Metal band from Danville, Virginia, US.
Ton! Vermutlich liegen die Ursprünge schon etwas länger zurück, denn als Ton im Januar 2006 gegründet wurde, gab es schon an die vierzig Songs, die in einem kleinen Keller im Kölner Umland entstanden waren. In seiner Zeit als Sänger und Songwriter bei den Wohlstandskindern hatte Tobias Roeger immer wieder nebenbei an Liedern und Ideen gearbeitet, die letztendlich den Grundstein für Ton legen sollten.
