2010-01-02: Soniq Circus in Emergenza

 

Soniq Circus will take part in the international music competition Emergenza. The band looks much forward to this event, which have been closed to Soniq Circus since it took part last time in 2006. Before, only unsigned bands were allowed to participate. Now it's free to compete as long as you're not signed to a major label.

In 2006 Soniq Circus made it to the Skåne final thanks to the support of our fans. Take the chance to cheer on the band and have a great evening at the same time. The first gig for Soniq Circus is at Bodoni Friday the 5h of February.



2009-12-28: Rökstenen in stores

 

The album Rökstenen : A Tribute To Swedish Progressive Rock Of The 70's is out now. Soniq Circus is represented by the cover song Stockholm in Swedish, originally performed by Pugh Rogerfelt. The album is a nice compilation of songs from the 70th's with focus on symphonic and progressive music. The contribution of Soniq Circus is actually more from the Swedish Prog-scene. This was a popular genre in the 70th's and compared to progressive music, more simple with political influences. But of course Soniq Circus have put its own touch on Stockholm, making it more modern and progressive.

So far we have only found the album available for purchase from Amazon in France, using this link http://www.amazon.fr/R%C3%B6kstenen-Tribute-Swedish-Progressive-Rock/dp/B0031KPKC4. Please send us a tip if you find it elsewhere.
