CIRCUS OF POWER Frontman Publishes Book

October 28, 2006

CIRCUS OF POWER frontman Alex Mitchell has published a book, entitled "Life Is A Phantom Kmart Horse Starting Up In The Middle Of The Night". The author's official bio reads as follows:

"Alex Mitchell was born in Toronto and moved to Pompano Beach when he was 12. He was student of the year in eighth grade but got kicked out the following semester. Mitchell never finished high school, instead spending the several years working construction, dealing pot, cutting lawns, and hanging around the local punk rock scene. He moved to New York City at age 21 and later formed the rock group CIRCUS OF POWER (RCA Records). In 1991, he moved to Los Angeles and started writing poems in 2004. Alex continues to live in L.A., writing and singing in rock groups."

CIRCUS OF POWER's first New York City show in over 12 years was held on Sept. 27 in conjunction with director Drew Stone's release party for his new film "Passion & Brotherhood". The band appears in the film from Austin, Texas performing "Heart Attack" as the soundtrack to the "Urban Street - Bike Warriors All-Star" segment. Live footage of the band is intercut with the world's top street motorcycle stunt riders, including Kyle Woods and Chris "Teach" McNeil.

The New York City show was filmed for the upcoming CIRCUS OF POWER long-form DVD, "Got Motor? Swamp Boogie In The Big City", due out in 2007 through Renegade Distribution. The DVD will include classic performances throughout the band's career as well as new footage documenting the band's "20th anniversary" shows.
