"Energy and quality! Circus’ set blew the Newport University audience away… within a few electric bars, we wanted them back to headline next time!”
Jonny Roberts, Entertainments & Media Officer, University of Wales, Newport
Frontman Sid Batham and Bruce Fielder on keyboard/synth have been a drivingforce behind CIRCUS since the band formed in 2005, while the lads were stillat Reepham High in Norfolk.
Gigging regularly in their home county of Norfolk and in and around London, CIRCUS ramped it up to secure support sets for The Automatic and Stone Gods last year.
Matt Hewitt (drums) and Angus Taylor (bass) joined the lineup more recently,putting a massive, driving energy behind the band's original, guitar-drivenpowerhouse of a sound.
CIRCUS has just finished recording with producer Colin Leggett (Thin Lizzy,Jeff Beck, The Jam, Primal Scream) with Nick Brine engineering (Oasis,Arctic Monkeys, KT Tunstall) at Leeders Farm in Norfolk.
The resulting singles are due for release this year and the band is nowlooking to ramp up live shows around the UK.
"Sid Batham has the the musical virtuosity of Prince, the captivating swagger of Jagger ... and the youth of a puppy. It’s all a bit unfair!"
