Totally Tubular Festival 2026
Totally Tubular Festival 2026 is coming to Irqouois Amphitheater for an unforgettable night of synths, style, and pure nostalgia! Dont miss Thomas Dolby & The Lost Toy People, A Flock of Seagulls, The Motels, The Producers, Animotion, The Escapte Club, and Tommy Tutone on Friday, August 14th.
Forty years after its inception, Thomas Dolby has decided to reform Lost Toy People for the summer 2026 Totally Tubular Festival, with Divinity Roxx (Beyoncé's band leader) on bass, and Mat Hector (Iggy Pop, Thom Yorke, KT Tunstall) on drums. The list of breakthrough innovations in Thomas Dolby's 45-year career is continuous. His synth playing and production have graced the recordings of Foreigner, Def Leppard, George Clinton and Joni Mitchell, earning five Grammy™ nominations. And his self-penned She Blinded Me With Science became a Top 5 Billboard hit, going on to become an evergreen geek anthem of the 1980s that still pops up in Grand Theft Auto, The Big Bang Theory, and Breaking Bad.
A Flock of Seagulls remains one of the most recognizable and influential bands to emerge from the early 1980s new wave movement. Formed in Liverpool and led by vocalist and songwriter Mike Score, the group helped define the sound and visual identity of the MTV era — blending atmospheric synthesizers, angular guitars, and cinematic melodies into a style that continues to shape modern electronic and alternative music. More than four decades after their debut, A Flock of Seagulls stand as pioneers of modern pop futurism — proof that songs built on mood, melody, and imagination can transcend eras and remain unmistakably alive.
