We want to let everyone know that this Saturday, April 18th will be the final show for Astro Circus. Our beloved Uncle Chalmers, aka The Supreme Chancellor of Space Funk, aka Captain Tom has decided to boldly go on a new journey in life. He is a founding member and key contributor to our crazy space circus, and we feel now is the right time for one last show!
A huge thank you to all the cosmic clowns, space freaks and astro-enthusiasts that have followed us along the way!! Even though this Circus is ending, as a wise man once said, The Music Never Stops!
Hope to see you all out at The Majestic Theater this Saturday for April Grooves Day!! ๐ช๐๐ช

You donโt want to miss the circus in town!!๐ช๐ฅ
"Almost 9 years back, Astro Circus formed from humble beginnings in the Kankakee open jam / bar scene as a cover band. Angie, John, and Tom (who actually played guitar at the time) met quickly and immediately got on stage together with what little they could muster, playing songs everybody knows and loves such as โHand Jiveโ. Once their sound matured over the years, and even dealing with Tom moving out of state for 2 of those years, they started writing original material by summer of 2022.
It was all fine and well, but still missing a drummer and keyboard player that really completed the bandโs sound. Then came in Eric on keyboard in the year 2023, and with the addition of Jeff on drums this year, it is safe to say the band has become somewhat of an unstoppable force with the accompaniment that we now hold dear.
Donning the rock and roll badge, Astro Circus will make you swoon and leave you in awe by shifting gears many times during their sets. They are everything yacht rock is and more, touching on jazz, folk, oldies and even soul at times, but always remaining in the psychedelic vein."
