Toy Soldier is a Cork based Electropop duo with a pulsing upbeat groove exuding a warm summer vibe.  Think of a beach party with Hot Chip, Cut Copy and Passion Pit all invited.

In their short lifespan Toy Soldier have toured in Europe and the USA, featured on an ‘Ireland’s Hottest Acts’ CD in Hot Press Magazine and have been lauded by BBC radio DJ Tom Robinson on his show ‘BBC Introducing’.

Toy Soldier is Cian Walsh (Voice, Synth, Guitar) and Fergal McCarthy (Drums and Live Programming).

“Before Fergal and I met I had been studying Classical music at the Cork School of Music while he was in Brighton studying drums at BIMM. Both fresh out of college we started jamming and Toy Soldier was born” , explains frontman Cian.

The US tour saw the band perform at the world famous ‘House of Blues’ venue on Sunset Boulevard in LA as well as feature on popular LA station KCSN fm.

The band are currently gearing up to promote their upcoming single ‘Wild One’ which is released on April 1st.
