Circus of Rock - Come One, Come All (2021) [Hi-Res]

Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the signing of Circus Of Rock to the label. Circus Of Rock is a new band, or rather a massive musical project, masterminded by drummer Mirka Rantanen (King Company). The debut album "Come One, Come All" has a killer line-up of singers and musicians. The amazing talents involved come from the likes of Amaranthe, Tyketto, Hardline, Nightwish, Leverage and more, plus musicians from bands such as Stratovarius, Brother Firetribe, Masterplan and others.

"A few years ago I started to think about recording a solo album. However, I didn't want to do just a traditional solo album. That's because people often think a solo album is mainly to allow the musicians to show off their fantastic skills and magnificent instruments, but I wanted to focus more on the great songs that don't happen to have extra drum solos. I also wanted to include many fantastic colleagues with whom I have played over the years on this album and in addition a couple of great guest singers. My intention was to get the album released in 2021, when I turn 50. And now this will happen thanks to the Frontiers label. The album will be a kind of milestone in my professional career, my long-term 'dream that is finally coming true' type of thing", says Rantanen.

Mirka Rantanen has a long career in the Finnish hard rock scene. He has played on 30+ albums during his 30-year career, including releases by King Company, Raskasta Joulua, Kotipelto, Warmen, Northern Kings, Revolution Renaissance and more. In addition, ten years ago he created the very popular heavy rock band for kids called Hevisaurus, for which he was awarded the Emma Award in 2011 (the Finnish equivalent of a Grammy).
