Not all gigs feel poignant. Circu5's gig at The Rolly in Swindon was an exception. But it all happened the night The Rolly closed. There's something special about seeing live music and spending time with other human beings. Let's support our local venues while we still can.

Happy Birthday to Jennie Anderson! Jennie created the incredible art and design for Circu5's Clockwork Tulpa album. @jennieanderson.bsky.social

DPRP’s Béla Alabástrom and Mr F travelled to Swindon in April to meet Steve Tilling, delve deep into the dark dystopian vision of CIRCU5. We discussed the evolution of Steve’s music, focusing on the brilliant "Clockwork Tulpa". www.mixcloud.com/DPR... #prog #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock

"Obsession took him to the edge - and almost into a cult." In this DPRP interview, Circu5's Steve Tilling, explains how perfectionism almost derailed him and the band. Hope you enjoy the listen! www.mixcloud.com/DPRP/dprp-po...

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson. Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word. This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

Calling all Bandcamp fans... CIRCU5 is back on the site, should you wish to peruse our wares... circu5.bandcamp.com

The debut CIRCU5 album (2017) is now on all music platforms – and still on CD at www.circu5.com). To mark this momentous (ahem) occasion: The Amazing Monstrous Monstrous Grady feat. Dangerous Dave Gregory, Johnny Warman & Lou Dommett Young. Video by Yvonne Wootton & Dan Sollis.

CIRCU5 - the debut album from 2017 - is now available on your music player of choice (Spotify, Apple, Amazon, iTunes etc). Our latest album - Clockwork Tulpa - is available exclusively on CD (see www.circu5.com), and comes with free downloads, streaming and a bonus track.

This scares and saddens me. It's not my thing, but it sounds good in a mass-appeal kind of way. Why bother learning how to play, sing or write music, when you can make a catchy radio-ready song in seconds? Maybe it's time I swapped the plectrums for gardening gloves. youtu.be/eKxNGFjyRv0?...

Wind it up and watch it go... Ever wondered what our band are banging on about? Here's a quick video insight into Clockwork Tulpa, the title track of our new album. youtu.be/re3_BoWH_l4?...
