Star Circus

Star Circus is the brainchild of Dave Winkler (Renegade Playboys, Trophies of Man). After a detour playing guitar and touring as a hired gun for acts such as Bow Wow Wow, Johnny Lima and Ryan Hamilton, in late 2019 the band materialised out of Dave's passion to create an album focused around his own material.

The current line up features Dave (vocals/guitar), Jon Crampton (guitar/vocals), Sophie Aurelia Young (bass/vocals), William Robertson (guitar/keyboards/vocals) and Reuben O'Donoghue (drums).

“Infectious hooks & musical sophistication abound as Star Circus channel frontman Winkler’s inimitable style through the best of ‘70s/‘80s rock, creating a sound both comfortingly classic and excitingly innovative.” - Ben Christo (Sisters of Mercy/Ricky Warwick Band).
