Dean Dinning is the bassist for the band Toad the Wet Sprocket who emerged from Santa Barbara and made a name for themselves in the 1990's with the hits "All I Want" and "Walk on the Ocean". Three consecutive Gold or Platinum albums helped the band build a very loyal following that solidified itself when it raised 5x the goal amount for a Kickstarter campaign in 2013 to market their album New Constellation. Dean spoke with Rockonomics just as Toad were wrapping up their 2018 summer tour.
