The contrasts and compatibilities in their sound as they effortlessly weave from naked to polished, impassioned to reserved, showcase an exhilaratingly dynamic songwriting partnership. The Reading based duo, consisting of Sam Brett (vocals/guitar) and Jim Crowder (vocals/keyboard), was formed one night in Oxford after walking past the city’s ‘Circus Street’. Both agreed it would make a good band name, but it wasn’t until later that night when they attended a gig and knocked back a few drinks that the pair decided to form a duo. Ciircus Street’s second single ‘Lost’ has been streamed over 70,000 times on Spotify and they seek to capitalise on this success with their third single ‘Broken’.
