Moe. – “Circle of Giants”

Circle of Giants is moe.’s 14th studio release, marking a monumental moment as they celebrate 35 years as a band and launch a National Tour! A testament to their resilience, evolution, and boundless creativity, the album arrives alongside an exclusive studio performance of their lead single, “Ups and Downs,” capturing the band’s raw energy and musicianship in a live setting. “It feels good to celebrate after the amount of shit we’ve been through,” says bassist/vocalist Rob Derhak with a good-natured laugh. Guitarist/vocalist Al Schnier adds: “We have always found our way forward because we have each other.”

Nuke the Soup: “Big Wave Dave”

The 11 songs on Dancing On The Edge were written and recorded within two years, during a time when bandleader Mark Davison lost both parents. Davison states, “Although the song ‘I Ride Alone’ is about facing mortality & new challenges, the overall album is as a celebration of my parents and the full lives they lived. I’m celebrating by skiing, surfing & creating music!” We certainly see Mark’s good time attitude toward life in the album’s summery single, “Big Dave Wave.”

“Our single has gone from about 1,000 streams total to over 1,500/week ever since Powderfinger did the radio promo.” –Mike Brey
