Hello and welcome!
We are 'Totico', a wedding and function band - The 8 (+2 Techs) members of Totico are from Ellon to Laurencekirk and based around Stonehaven. They are a party/function type outfit offering you the chance to get down and boogie.
Totico has sorta 'evolved'. Starting out initially in Cumbria from a band called 'Doin Time' around 2002/3. 'Doin Time' were a simple 6-piece covers pub/club outfit that were not really a function band. When 'Doin Time' came to a natural end, as these things do, a few of the members started a new band 'Totico'. This was aimed at the function/wedding market. The numbers, the feel, and indeed the members, have changed over the years from 7 to 11, and currently 8, but we've always tried to keep the same 'party feel'.
Where does the name come from and, what does it mean? Well 'Doin Time' used to play a cover of an old Freakpower song called Turn On Tune In Cop Out. When writing out our set list it was just shortened to TOTICO. One day someone ask what the word 'Totico' was and at that moment we realised that any new band would have to use that name as it was such a good word. Easy really. We have our own translation of it though - 'Fun'.
