Tokyo Monsters

Buffalo, NY
Rock and Indie Rock

Formed in 2017 from various Western New York bands the result was one unique and unheard of sound: Tokyo Monsters. The Band is comprised of cousins Chris and Joe Baldwin, Nate Ronca, and Steven Rybarczyk. Together they have played countless WNY venues, and have had the honor of sharing the stage with other fantastic talent, including Brent Walsh (I the Mighty), Kurt Travis (Dance Gavin Dance), Year of the Locust, David Ellefson (Megadeath), Thomas Erak (The Fall Of Troy) and American Rock band Theory of a Deadman!

Their first EP “The Bitter Suite” (2018) showcases their songwriting talent, as well as a one-of-a-kind sound with songs such as “Battle for the Waterfall Pt. 2,” and “The Daredevil of Marywood.”

In late 2018 they went back into the studio working on captivating their sound and “Dangerous” was finally released, as the band’s second EP. Featuring the locally acclaimed singles “Dangerous” and “Elevenses” their second EP really showcased the band’s ability to experiment while producing wonderful results.

Looking to the future the boys plan on heading back into the studio for a third time late this year, with a new direction in mind, new goals to achieve, and plans to take the stage at a venue nearest you!
