Episode 466: Circles Around The Sun

Since its inception in 2015 as the soundtrack to the end of the Grateful Dead's long strange trip, Neal Casal's Circles Around The Sun has evolved and grown into something much greater than the sum of its parts (keyboardist Adam MacDougall, bassist Dan Horne, and drummer Mark Levy) and original mission. In August of 2019, tragedy struck when Casal took his own life, but he didn't exit this world without leaving behind something for the rest of us: MUSIC.

Circles Around The Sun, the band's third and final album with Casal, is a party the size of the universe and unlike anything the band has done before. It's also a bittersweet reminder that even when the light is barely flickering, there's still so much joy to be found if you just look in the right direction.
