Circus Tents

About Me

Old Skate Rock Band from Grass Valley, Ca from 1989 to 1993 (or something like that).

Released a 12 song self titled cassette tape in 1990 (100 copies) and a 4 song 7" record titled "Hard Up" on Insurrection Records in 1992 (1000 copies). Had a couple songs featured on some early Powell skate videos. Reached international fame when Billie Joe from Green Day stuck a CT sticker on his guitar and AFI covered "Open Your Eyes". That's about it.

After the Circus Tents broke up, Matt and Chad went on to start up The Force, Jon played in Cigar, and Scot did the Wimpy Heroes with Matt and later played in Superuin.

Jon now plays in Ra Ra Rabbit.

Matt now plays in Viva Hate.
