Circle II Circle Embraces USA Management Team

Online, July 23, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Circle II Circle features the voice of Atlantic Records recording artists Savatage from 1992-2000, Zak Stevens, and was formed in 2003 in Tampa, FL. CIIC currently has five world-wide releases to its credit over the last nine years; "Watching in Silence"(2003), "Middle of Nowhere (2005), "Burden of Truth"(2006), "Delusions of Grandeur"(2008), "Consequence of Power" (2010) as well as four additional EP releases. CIIC fans will be excited to hear that they are working on their sixth album titled "Seasons Will Fall" and will be released with a date TBA in early 2013, with tours and festivals to surely follow.

"I'm very excited to announce that CIIC has teamed up with Rage On Stage Management for management, promotions, and booking in the USA and Canadian territories. This was a move we needed to make to increase our overall presence here at home and in Canada. We're really looking forward to connecting with a lot more of our fans across North America as a result of this signing." - Zak Stevens

To put CIIC in a specific genre style isn't easy, but you can expect every live show to deliver the high-powered thunder of that Southern rock-edged, progressive metal/hard rock sound that has become their unique trademark. As always you can anticipate a heavy dose of Stevens' over-the-top power and ultra-melodic rock vocals leading the charge. The current live set offers a tribute to Savatage with all of the most requested songs from Zak's era, intertwining a powerful collection of CIIC songs from the past decade; in short ... one amazing concert!!

"Through my musical years, Savatage has always been a staple of my diverse sense and taste in a band. These guys have obviously paved a road for which many continue to follow and with Stevens keeping that door open with Circle II Circle, fans of then and now couldn't be happier" says Frank James, president of Rage On Stage Management.

Being able to reinvent themselves over and over again and staying relevant is extremely hard to do, and the fact that they are able to over-come this massive obstacle is something that very few bands have done. It proves that CIIC is here to stay. We're told that lots of plans are in the works with this new merge and the buzz for more USA tour dates is gaining attention.
