BTO began playing small parties in Cambridge and Somerville, but was
able to achieve significant recognition as a result of a featured
appearance at Somerville Art Beat in July, 2006. BTO has been
featured on television several times including NBC Weekend Today and
Chronicle. BTO has also been featured on NPR Radio and has performed
live on WMBR. The group recently completed a successful run, opening
for Le Cabaret Grimm at the Boston Center for the Arts.
