Toto's David Paich announces debut solo album

David Paich and the Players Club/Mascot Label Group announce the release of his debut solo album, titled ‘Forgotten Toys’ on 19th August 2022.

If you’ve listened to music in the last 50 years, you were likely hearing David Paich. Besides being the co-founder of iconic rock band TOTO, he has contributed to more than 2000 albums. Music is the soundtrack of our lives, and David is one of its architects.

With his diverse catalogue, he has been kicking around song ideas for a solo album for some time. The COVID lockdown presented Paich the opportunity to revisit those songs, and the result being a collection of tunes that he has carried in my head for years.

For as much as it may be a “solo” album, Paich couldn’t help but invite a few friends to play. Joined by Joseph Williams as co-producer and sometimes co-vocalist, he welcomed everyone from Toto’s Steve Lukather to Brian Eno, Michael McDonald, Ray Parker Jr., Don Felder, and Steve Jordan of The Rolling Stones.
