Who Wants To Hear The New Record?

About Me

We are a ROCK BAND! WE ROCK!
Ring, Cicada is a four piece rock outfit from the St. Louis, MO area. They have been beating a path around the Mid-West and other parts of the country for the better part of ten years. Their sound is rooted in the glory days of mid 90's post-rock. With comparisons ranging from The Jesus Lizard to King Crimson, Slint to Don Caballero. Ring, Cicada has been pushing to make compelling rock music that is at the same time complex yet still groove oriented. With their first true full length album (Good Morning, Mr. Good) the band solidified their sound and with the upcoming release (The Deuce) Ring, Cicada will push themselves further on the creative front. The current line-up consists of: Chris Powell (Guitar/Vocals), Dave Goodman (Guitars), Aaron Zeveski (Drums) and Drew Mader (Bass). MyGen Profile Generator
