Circus is a collection of eloquent narratives and intelligent harmonies written by Bernasconi and Canteri, who reflect on a range of personal and controversial issues.
The album’s first single Monday Morning is a light-hearted tribute to those lazy mornings as reality finally settles in.
Title track Circus, tells the story of an English girl travelling to Australia, determine to hold on to her previous life back home. Bernasconi, who wrote the track, reflects heavily on personal experience, having moved from England four years ago. “Australia is like a Circus compared to the dreariness of the UK, yet sometimes people feel the need to recreate their old lives, despite moving 12,000 miles away.”
Their second single Charity and Ghosts (Where’s Your Mama Gone?) is an emotional depiction of 10 year old British ‘orphan’ who were taken from England in order to populate Australia in the 1930s.
Other album highlights include the raw Young Boy Blues, Why Don’t You Need It and Birds, the first track ever recorded by the band.
Circus is available April 9th 2009, courtesy of MGM/Green Distribution Media and will be available in all good music stores nationally and iTunes.
