Band history

In 2003 he moved to Pretoria, South Africa where he quickly formed The Fake Leather Blues Band, together with brothers Conrad and Franco Jamneck.[3] In 2010, Mozambican born Pedro Barbosa formed together with Peter The Barbosa Experience and in that year he also joined Hoot 'n Anny, together with Franco Jamneck and his wife Alouise. Looking to press his own stamp, he formed the Peter Toussaint Band in 2016 with Franco Jamneck and Wim van Vuuren. In 2017 Wim stopped due to not having enough time and Lourene Mostert (Tuin Band) stepped in on bass. Franco played drums in the band until Lourene moved to Europe in 2017. The band now recruited Jason Venter on drums.
