The Orange Circus Band is a raucous indie folk-pop collective based in the UK, with roots in Virginia, USA.
Whilst having a hand in roots, rock and gospel music, they not only update traditional songs taken from The Blue Ridge Mountains - largely inspired by Granny Alice - The Orange Circus Band also creates original music that has a wholly unique, fresh sound.

On 19th May, The OC released the new video ahead of their upcoming single release ‘Gold ‘n’ Rum’ - out 16th June, 2017. Amid Circus summers where dreams are made of Gold 'n' Rum, from the video you can expect a sense of the wild, freedom and play.
Jeremy Searle, Deputy Editor of Americana UK, says, “Now this is fun, the new single from the Orange Circus Band, a UK/Virginia outfit who look destined for big things."
Nostalgia, longing, being in the moment, now; it has something for everyone.
Whilst releasing the single 'Gold 'n' Rum' with its accompanying video shot across northern Italian territory, The Orange Circus Band is getting ready for a stack of UK gigs across the summer, festival line-ups, touring Europe, whilst also hosting the 'Walking with Music' tour across southern Spain.
