A founding member of Sparks the Rescue, Maine native Toby McAllister has been making music since childhood. After years of touring the world with Sparks, he returned home to raise a family and launch a solo career. His debut EP Daydreamin’ (2020) led to shows alongside some of his idols, and in 2023 he followed with Autumn Skies, a heartfelt record featuring longtime Sparks bandmates and guest appearances from members of The Mallett Brothers Band and Old 97’s. The album earned a New England Music Awards nomination for Album of the Year.
In 2024, inspired by the loss of his father and the birth of his second child, McAllister recorded The Outsider EP in rural Maine with producer Jonathan Wyman. Its opening track, “Millinocket Stars,” is now in rotation on Portland’s WCLZ. Beyond his original work, McAllister stays busy performing across New England, including with his wedding band The Jameson Four.
Toby McAllister & The Sierra Sounds have shared the stage with Carly Pearce, Eli Young Band, Rhett Miller, Old 97’s, Billy Bob Thornton & The Boxmasters, and The Mallett Brothers Band.
