I'm very excited to announce an epic bill
for our Boston CD release show. This show marks a reunion with our beloved REVEREND GLASSEYE (relocated from Boston to Austin two years ago) who will debuting a new band and playing new songs as well as some of the older material. In addition, the astounding 30-piece circus punk marching band from Chicago MUCCA
PAZZA, Boston supergroup KETMAN,
and singer/multi-instrumentalist/phenomenon LARKIN
GRIMM (Young God Records) all help us release our third full-length
Boy From Black Mountain (Cuneiform Records) on Friday September
11 at the Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge MA. And we've scheduled the cd release show 2 weeks in advance of the actual street date so you can get your hands on the album early!
Tickets go on sale Friday July 24th in person at the Middle
East Box Office (1-7pm every day) and at all Ticketmaster locations. Get
tickets soon as these are going to go quickly! More information on the SHOWS
page.
The new Beat Circus album Boy From Black
Mountain is mastered. It will see a release date on September 29th on Cuneiform Records. The album
was recorded at Camp Street Studios by Sean Slade (Dresden Dolls, Dinosaur Jr., Radiohead) and mixed by Bryce Goggin (Pavement, Antony &
the Johnsons, Angels Of Light). Special guests include vocalist
Larkin Grimm (Young God Records), cellist Julia Kent (Antony and the Johnsons),
and multi-instrumentalist Bill Cole (a specialist in non-Western wind instruments
such as the Chinese suona). We are planning a big cd release show in Boston in early September
so you can get your hands on it a little earlier so stay tuned for that.
