[MP3] The Farewell Circuit: “Make It Right”

Confession: I’ve been sitting on a gold mine for a little while now, and I’m finally able to give you a sneak peek. The Farewell Circuit have completed their newest album, In Our Bones (to be released soon), and I’ve been lucky enough to hear it.

A band we’ve championed since I-can’t-even-remember-when, The […]

The Farewell Circuit drop free Xmas EP

Okay, seriously, we receive tons of holiday-related songs around this time of year, but that doesn’t prevent us from listening to and enjoying most (…some) of them.

Easily accessible, yet not without a darker merit, The Farewell […]
