Born in Flatbush to Jamaican parents, Toli was named by her godfather, reggae soul star, Keith Rowe (Stop that Train). Finding her voice through study with Lester Bowie, Fontella Bass, the Mad Professor, Toots and the Maytals, Marshal Allen and the Sun Ra Arkestra and further study at the New School Jazz Conservatory, Toli founded the all-female ensemble, the Femm. She has played in venues from Barbican Museum (London), Club Balatuu (Montreal) to Carnegie Hall, Symphony Space, Joes Pub, BAM, Knitting Factory, Makor, Prospect Park Band Shell and the Blue Note.
