KNOX HAMILTONThe Man With All The Toys

Knox Hamilton, with help from Team Coco, recently premiered their Beach Boys cover song ‘The Man With All The Toys’.
When asked why, singer Boots Copeland said, “We always felt that The Beach Boys Christmas (1964) album deserves more recognition than it gets, so we figured what better band to carry the torch than Knox Hamilton.”
Of course, the Knox Hamilton cover will feature their falsetto-singing and harmony vocals.
