CIRCUS FIRES : MADISON.WI

A glimpse into what we’ve been up to over the last year. 

Reminder: We're playing at the High Noon Saloon on Saturday (3/14) at 6:00 PM with Weathered and Township. We're playing a fun mix of old and new tunes. See you there!

We are super jazzed to be included in this great collection of Madison artists! Tidal HIFI is a streaming service aimed specifically at streaming HIFI audio. Audiophiles: rejoice! 

"Madison, Wisconsin is a college town at heart.But surrounding our dormitories, classrooms and many libraries is a community of musicians bent on supporting one another and fostering a sense of togetherness to create a scene.While we may not be as big as other renowned music meccas, Madison can boast that its community is tighter—and therefore stronger—than most.Here are eight of our acts you should probably get to know." 

We're extremely excited to be playing at the High Noon Saloon on March 14 with Township and Weathered. The fun starts at 6:00 and costs $6.00. 

On April 1, we'll be playing alongside From Indian Lakes, The Soil & The Sun, and Lemolo at the Frequency!

We are extremely excited to share the new material we've been working on!

New Music. New Shows. Stay Tuned. Get Excited. 

In just a couple short days, we’ll be able to finally share with everyone something we have worked on for so long. It’s been exactly a year since we first drove down to Chicago and started recording what became “All Living Things.” It has been one of the most patience-testing, rewarding, difficult, and amazing experiences any of us have gone through.  And soon this won’t be our project anymore, it will be yours. We hope a couple years from now you can listen to this album and remember the end of Summer 2013. You can remember that chilly July weather where it felt like autumn in Wisconsin. You can remember the break-ups and let-downs, the late nights and whiskey shots. Whatever you do with this album, we just hope it leaves a lasting impression. We hope “All Living Things” for you is what “Stay What You Are,” “The Illusion of Safety,” “Control,” or even “Dude Ranch” was to us. Thank you so much for being so excited about Circus Fires. We just want to make music our friends and family would enjoy listening to, and every time we hear new people enjoying it…that family gets a little bigger.  If you like what you hear in the next couple days, please share it with other people. Your word-of-mouth is going to take us farther than any blog post ever could. We’ll have more info on how to purchase the album and all that fun stuff, but once again…thank you for listening.

A few weeks back, we announced that we are heading to Chicago for a few days to begin tracking our first record. Having played a few shows in Chicago in March with our pals Late In The Playoffs, we met Mark Michalik who had produced and engineered their five song EP. We immediately thought how great it'd be if we could do a record with him. He's done some really great records that we all love (Stay Ahead of The Weather, The Swellers, Into It. Over It.) We also have chosen to track these songs at Matt Allison's Atlas Studio (Alkaline Trio, Lawrence Arms) and are very anxious to get into that room.  

Coming off of a few-month long break to write new songs, revisit older ones, and dig up some ancient ones, we are more than excited to place all these songs under one audible roof. We're really excited to get back on a stage and play these new songs and a bunch of old ones for you.  Upcoming shows:

FRI JULY 27  - MADISON - FREQUENCY  - w/ READY THE COLOURS, WOODSON

FRI AUG 17 - MADISON - FREQUENCY - w/ FROM INDIAN LAKES, WOODSON

Check back next week as we will be updating our blog right here as we are tracking the recording process.  

Best,
