Le Pop Musik Tucson Songs

Bread and Circus is included on a compilation released by German label Le Pop Musik entitled: Tucson Songs

Tucson Songs - Exciting New Sounds From Southern Arizona

Dieses Quartett ist ebenso typisch wie selten: Typisch für die Arizona-Szene, weil sich hier gerne Alternative und Country treffen. Selten deshalb, weil Bread And Circus das auf eine Weise tun, wie es vorher eigentlich nur Green On Red konnten. Cool, roh und energetisch. Für alle, die mit dem Vergleich heute nicht mehr so viel anfangen können. Neben R.E.M., Camper Van Beethoven und The Feelies gehörten Green On Red in den späten Achtzigern und frühen Neunzigern zu den Aushängeschildern des US-College-Rock. Schön, dass diese Tradition hier so gekonnt fortgesetzt wird.

Here comes a quartet that is as much typical as it is rare. Typical for the Arizona-scene because is brings together alternative and country. Rare because of the way Bread and Circus does it, cool, raw and energetically, done only before by the likes of Green on Red. For those who are not in the loop, Green on Red was a figurehead in the US College Rock scene alongside R.E.M., Camper Van Beethoven and The Feelies. Good to know that this tradition has been passed on so successfully.
