The band will undoubtedly be playing some tracks off their lively, male/female harmony centered second album, I Saw Stars, which is due out May 10. The tour kicks off June 3 at Cincinnati’s Stanley’s Pub. In an industry where new genres are cropping up all the time, Ohio’s The Sewing Circle surfs and jumps old and new classifications with exuberance. The band enlisted the help of Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin producer, Jonathan James, to produce their second album I Saw Stars, whose six tracks capture the band’s expansive style. The imaginative I Saw Stars will be released May 10. In December of 2009, The Sewing Circle traveled to Springfield, Mo., to record with James and Ryan Spilken. “We did a lot of pre-production via e-mail,” co-lead vocalist and songwriter Andrew Rohde explains. “We sent MP3s to them, incorporating their suggestions as we rearranged the songs.” After three months of pre-production, the trio of Meghan Blake (co-lead vocalist/songwriter) What came into being is a lively set of songs that gives the listener a taste of The Sewing Circle’s range of styles. The edgy “Five Cigarettes” rides a carefree Bo Diddley rhythm and pokes fun at the desire for fame that afflicts so many people. “I reference Kurt Cobain specifically,” The band’s debut, The Sewing Circle, was praised for its joyful melodies, inventive arrangements that blended rock, folk and roots music and the stunning harmonies of Blake and Rohde. It was produced by Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, Von Bondies, Mooney Suzuki), at Ghetto Recorders in Detroit, Mich.
