About Bret Tobias Set
“Bret cut his teeth co-fronting the Bigger Lovers, a Philly guitar pop group that swung for the

fences in the aughts. The Lovers got four stars from David Fricke in Rolling Stone, opened for Wilco,
got panned in Pitchfork, recorded a World Cafe session and built a respectable fanbase one
bespectacled dude at a time.

Bret re-emerged in 2023 with a set of sharply observed and somewhat dyspeptic contenders via
the Pleaser EP. The Butter Valley Malcontent EP followed a year later.”

THE BAND: Bret (vocals, rhythm guitar), Krista Umile (strings, keys, vocals), Mike Kennedy (drums),
