Hello everyone!  We hope that summer has been treating you well.

On Monday, August 9th, Baby ToyBlock (AKA Lil Misery) turns TWO!  Happy Birthday!  And, in honor of her birthday, our favorite charity will be featured on I Wear Your Shirt.  We hope you will check it out.

Thank you for your continued support.  As soon as the weather turns, and we come in from the park and the pool, we will be sending you new updates, new videos, new songs and new things to eat.

-The ToyBlock Team

Uh, umm….  uh…

It’s summer!  We’ve been out playing in pools, sliding on slides and singing in the rain.  But, yes, that means we’ve been neglecting our loyal #pasteeaters! Many thanks to @jonfun for pointing out our neglect.

So, what’s new? We have a few new songs in the works, some great new videos, and plans for Toy Block domination.  We sponsored The Bleeding Heart Bakery cupcake eating contest.  Go pick up a cupcake or cake ball!  Tell ‘em we sent you.  Punk bakeries are awesome.  And, we’ve taken some time to play with our kids!

Thanks to all our fans, we promise there is more in store in the coming months…

Wow, what a month… Thanks to Jason and Evan of I Wear Your Shirt for an amazing month of promotion and fun activities. We sold out of limited edition EATS PASTE CDs. We started ordering T-shirts. We ran through fountains. We stared recording the next EP. We shipped 100 pounds of glue.

And our PASTE EATERS made so many incredible videos inspired by our songs.

So, thank you. and thank you. and thank you. We can’t eat paste alone, and you proved we don’t have to. Thanks for supporting good music, and good music made for kids and charity.

There is so much more coming! Stay tuned for news about charity events, a superhero ice cream social, a new limited edition CD, and more.

We have been so busy this week! Jason Sadler from I Wear Your Shirt has been visiting Chicago and ToyBlock Music. We did some recording, and did some tourist-y things. Check it out…

Did you know that one of our sponsors is Comfort Suites Chicago? Did you know that they have amazing rooms, gorgeous views and phenomenal customer service? Well, now you do. If you are ever in Chicago, check them out. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you Natali, and everyone at CSChicago for helping us out.

Some people trying to make a purchase yesterday may have encountered a problem getting past the “make purchase” page. It’s been fixed now! Try again!

It’s April 1st, and we are all going to Eat Paste! No, not really, but we are releasing the first seven tracks as the EP Eats Paste.

Why should you care?  Well, we think the songs are pretty awesome.  We remember singing them when we were kids, and we are still singing them today, just in an updated way.  Kids learn to speak by listening to adult language, why should they learn about music in a different way?  Let’s give them what they want, but with appropriate and fun songs.

So, take a listen, and feel free to give us some feedback.  This one goes out to all the current and former paste eaters.

To celebrate our release, we sent Jason Sadler 100 pounds of Paste. Evan White helped us…
