Biography
An early to mid 1980’s duo from Stephen Tobeck and Onset/Offset records Campbell McLay. A strictly DIY affair, engineered like a million other Christchurch records at the time by Arnie van Bussell at Nightshift Studios.
Toerag first appeared on the 2nd ‘Krypton Hits’ compilation in 1983 alongside label-mates The Bottletops along with some who would become more well known acts such as Scorched Earth Policy and The Bats (thanks to the success of Flying Nun Records), reflecting on a furtive period for Christchurch groups.
