About Circus Envy

Circus Envy are a rootsy five piece based in East Yorkshire, who eschew the indie rock zeitgeist in their home town in favour of a sound equally influenced by classic rock, folk rock and americana.

Diverting from the mainstream by using instrumentation as exotic as the cajon, and the bouzouki, Circus Envy delight audiences when playing both electrically and acoustically, by building on the strengths of each to create a subtly different, organic sound every time.

Mostly Toast Productions	Oct 21 2008 11:39 AM Hi there Mostly Toasties!! Just a quick update for you on the goings on of the Mostly Toast world.. The studio in The Northern Quarter is now fully up and running. We are going to open the studio up to singer songwriters every Saturday for what we are calling our "fastrack" service. It's like a drop in centre for musicians to get a song recorded, all for just £20!! Check the blog for more details.... The Mostly Acoustic gigs down at Nexus and the monthly Mostly Toast nights at The Green Windmill are going really well. We've had some amazing musicians playing some great music. Box Kid are still in the studio but the recordings are sounding great and we're really looking forward to getting them mixed, mastered and released!! To Sophia have already finished their recordings and have an album launch night sometime soon!! They will also be launching a new website in the very near future too!! phew... That's all for now folks.. Love The Mostly Toast Team x

what? the folk!	Oct 15 2008 4:39 PM what? the folk! & Solid Earth present: Freaks, Ghouls and Graves, a Balkan (ish) flavoured Halloween (ish) knees up at the delightful St Margaret’s church in Whalley Range. Another co-promo with the brains and muscle that brought Beats, Roots & Leaves back in May - this time tho we de-camp indoors to make the most of the Halloween theme inside a church, with face painters, ghost hunters, a bar provided by Jam Street and a fabulous line-up of musical tricker treats: Na Zdrove Na Zdrove is Sheffield's finest Balkan Beats, Gypsy Brass, Russian Ska, Gypsy Dub, Klezmer and Gypsy Punk night. blimey. We’ll ave some of that. We’ll be welcoming their house band and resident DJs - yes indeedy! http://www.myspace.com/nazdrove To Sophia Acoustic folk'n'bass with a distinctive latin flavour, yes yes technically not balkan but who gives a monkey’s when the beats are this good. http://www.myspace.com/tosophia 7Hertz get your ears round some cerebral spooky 'kafka-esque' jazz type folk stuff courtesy of Leeds’ 7hertz. this lot will sound mint in St Margarets. http://www.myspace.com/the7hertzband The Random Family have been doing wonders at St Brides church in Liverpool with their own Family Folk-up events. More interestingly though is how easily the blend of breezy pastoral melodies and touching vocals that these virtuosos deliver. From one church to another. amen http://www.myspace.com/therandomfamily1 ably assisted on the ones and twos by our resident what? the folk! musical alchemists Chris Long and Helen Sarah Vaughan.
