Cult circuit bending band Toydeath modify children’s electronic toys and wear human-sized cartoonish costumes to create a unique stage show. Toydeath produce live music from their tortured treasure-trove of modified toys including guitars, talking dolls and alphabet apples resulting in a surreal deluge of colour and craziness. Toydeath is part performance, part music and features hilarious toyworld pranksters: Tic-Toc, Agent Orange and Super Dad. Get ready for some hyperactive hootenanny as they unleash the contents of a toy box six-year-olds would kill for!
