TOLEDO is a Brooklyn-based indie rock duo originally from Newburyport, Massachusetts, known for their introspective songwriting and warm, harmonic sound. Childhood friends Daniel Alvarez de Toledo and Jordan Dunn-Pilz blend indie folk and alternative pop into a style they call “pillowcore,” marked by emotionally raw lyrics and dreamy arrangements. Their breakout EPs Hot Stuff and Jockeys of Love paved the way for their acclaimed debut album How It Ends, followed by the deluxe UNRATED EDITION. Signature tracks like “L-Train,” “Dog Has Its Day,” and “Cause & Effect” showcase their ability to fuse vulnerability with sonic richness.
TOLEDO has built a reputation for captivating live performances, touring nationally with headline runs like the How It Ends Tour and the Not From Ohio Tour. Their shows span intimate club venues to indie festivals, delivering a blend of mellow energy and emotional resonance that connects deeply with audiences. Whether performing stripped-down acoustic sets or full-band arrangements, their stage presence is both inviting and impactful.
Currently active with new releases including the Inertia EP (2025), TOLEDO continues to push boundaries in the indie scene. With a growing international fanbase and a steady stream of genre-defining work, they remain one of the most compelling acts in modern indie rock.
