\"\"<\/i><\/span>“THE HUMANS is a project that fills my heart with light and happiness. The story behind this is the Estonian Embassy asked myself, the hubby, and Bill Reiflin to do a concert in Estonia around November, of course Robert said No…why say YES when a word like NO is so easy to say. BUT Bill and I said YES! And thus we became THE HUMANS.”<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

That’s what Toyah said about The Humans in her May 2007 Webletter\/Blog.<\/span><\/p>\n

Three samples of songs; ‘We Are The Humans’, ‘This Belongs To You’ and ‘This Is Your Life’ were made available at The Humans MySpace when it launched in June 2007.<\/span><\/p>\n

Exclusive photos of Toyah and Bill Rieflin were also added to MySpace and later further images included Chris Wong, who became The Humans’ third member.<\/p>\n

In September 2007 a Dean Stockings video was produced for the song ‘We Are The Humans’, featuring footage of the band rehearsing. The album, ‘We Are The Humans’, was recorded in Seattle, USA.<\/p>\n

So far The Humans have played three live gigs; 25th October, Tallin, 26th October, Tartu, and 27th October, Viljandi. All in 2007 and all in Estonia. A fourth concert, the ‘We Are The Humans’ album launch, takes place on 1st May, once again in Estonia.<\/p>\n

This concert is special for a number of reasons; it’s the launch of a much-anticipated album, Robert Fripp will be supporting The Humans, as well as guesting in their set, the gig will be recorded for a possible live release, and the President of Estonia will be in attendance as part of the Anniversary of Estonia Independence.<\/p>\n
