The 2026 TOTALLY TUBULAR FESTIVAL launches July 17 in Phoenix. The tour’s lineup features Thomas Dolby & The Lost Toy People, A Flock Of Seagulls, The Producers, Animotion, The Escape Club, and Tommy Tutone, plus Annabella Lwin of Bow Wow Wow and Men Without Hats on select dates. 

This year’s festival will mark the first time Thomas Dolby & The Lost Toy People have performed together since 1988; their last show was at the Rose Bowl supporting Depeche Mode. This will also be the first time in over 25 years that The Producers (original lineup) will tour the US nationally coast to coast.

A newly reformed Lost Toy People, Dolby's backing band from 1986-89, joined the influential British singer/songwriter/keyboardist to record the multiple Grammy-nominated ALIENS ATE MY BUICK (his third album), which spawned such alternative radio hits as “Airhead,” “The Ability To Swing,” and “The Key To Her Ferrari.” Their Totally Tubular headlining set will feature most of the tracks from the album as well as Dolby’s greatest hits such as "She Blinded Me With Science," all played completely live with the full band.

The Lost Toy People lineup includes original guitarist Larry Treadwell and singer/percussionist Laura Creamer, plus Divinity Roxx on bass, Mat Hector on drums, and trombonist Ethan Santos. Other past LTP members make surprise cameos.
