Twelve years of rock and friendship

For twelve years, Surfside Circus has been bringing rock and roll to Southern California. While playing new venues is always exciting, the most memorable part of our journey has been the lasting friendships we've built with the venues we return to time and again. We're proud to keep the fire alive, rocking hard and sharing our music with a loyal community.

Laid back by nature, aggressive by sound

The personality of Surfside Circus is a unique blend. Off stage, we're laid back by nature, enjoying the creative process and each other's company. But when the music starts, we transform into one of the most musically aggressive bands around. We pour our heart and soul into every note, delivering a powerful and unforgettable rock experience that showcases our dedication to the craft.

Feel young again with our rock and roll

What drives us to make music and perform is a deep belief that wherever we play, our audience is getting some of the best rock anywhere. We hope that when people listen to Surfside Circus, they let their hair down, feel young again, and experience the therapeutic power of rock and roll. Our music is meant to be felt, to move you, and to create an experience that rejuvenates the spirit.

Call (714)400-7782 or email info@surfsidecircus.net to book one of your soon to be favorite bands. Cheers!

"Surfside Circus brings a raw energy that's hard to find. Their live shows are an absolute blast, and their passion for music is infectious!"
