Circa Survive
Biography
Philadelphia's Circa Survive was formed by former Saosin vocalist Anthony Green with guitarist Colin Frangicetto -- both of them veterans of the local emo and hardcore scenes looking to indulge in the rule-breaking freedom of the neo-progressive movement of the mid-2000s. After Green and Frangicetto discovered likeminded bandmates in second guitarist Brendan Ekstrom, bassist Nick Beard, and drummer Steve Clifford, Circa Survive recorded their debut album, Juturna (named after a Roman goddess), for Equal Vision Records in 2005. Lots of touring followed, including Warped Tour dates, and the album steadily sold close to an impressive 100,000 copies. A spot on the 2007 Coachella festival led into the late May release of Circa Survive's follow-up, On Letting Go. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide

I've seen circa three times. Once in Atlanta with Thrice (who I did not stay to see b/c i've seen them twice before and was sorely disappointed both times), once in Tallahassee( t h e y were headlining) and once at Voodoo fest in New Orleans. Anthony is amazing and this band puts on one of if not the best performances I've ever seen. If you ever get a chance to see them, it's well worth the time and money. Make sure you're close to the stage!!!
