Recently, Toby's played at The Peoples'Voice Cafe and the Community Cabaret in Manhattan with great success. His main influences can all be listed under the letter"S," namely; Frank Sinatra, Pete Seeger and Allan Sherman. Toby's original songs have been praised by singer-songwriters David Roth, Bob Franke, Kate Campbell and Bill Staines. They cover many styles within the folk and pop fields. He's also parodied favorite songs in those categories wittily, while respecting the original versions. Toby is aware that even great comedy can lose its interest after the element of surprise is gone and he has taken care to make"The Parody Man"enjoyable for the musicianship, as well as the humorous lyrics. In addition to his own fine vocal and guitar work,he has surrounded himself with top-notch instrumental and vocal backing to in sure this quality."The Parody Man" by Toby Fagenson is a recording that gets the ears to listening, the toes to tapping and the funny bones to tapping!
