In the 1960s Toots moved to Kingston, Trench Town where he formed the Maytals which was named after Hibbert’s home town in May Pen.

The Maytals was one of the most if not the most popular Jamaican music group in the 60s and made music for Coxsone Dodd, Prince Buster, Byron Lee and other top producers at the time.

Toots is best known for songs such as Bam Bam, Pressure drop, Time Tough, Country Roads and others.
