Bedtime for Toys are an unlikely congregation - a childhood opera/showtunes singing and former congressional aide front-girl (Marchelle Bradanini); a metal-shredding guitarist (Samuel Jacob Chatez); a beat-creating, rapping, keyboard-playing former law student (Toussaint Christophe); a gospel-chops son of a Motown drummer (Kenan More); and Finnish female bassist (Jenni Tara). Strangers have wondered how this happy group of misfit friends can be in a band and still have so much fun together. The love between them is real, as is their passion for the music they create. Bedtime For Toys are a melting pot of musical influences and backgrounds that converge in the middle to form a new breed of guilty pleasure dance pop that could have come straight out of a class project from the TV show "Fame."
