Biography
He was born in Aberdeen, Scotland. Tosh is a founding member of the 1970s band Pilot. Pilot achieved commercial success in 1974 and 1975 with Magic and January respectively. The band split up in 1977, and Tosh rejoined again, from 2007 to 2015.
Tosh contributed drums and percussion to tracks by The Alan Parsons Project, from 1975 to 1977. Stuart served three tenures with the group 10cc as their drummer (1977-1981, 1982-1983, 1993-1995), and played on all 10cc releases onwards from Deceptive Bends (1977).
