“We’re extremely proud of the record we put out. We spent a lot of time in the studio getting this one right and by all accounts, with record sales going strong in over ten countries, there is confirmation that we’ve done it right! Fans online and at our shows tell us just how much they love this record and that drives us just that much harder to deliver what the fans want; a great Ninth Circle show filled with the songs they love from the record. And now that we get to perform at the South Bay Music Awards show, it is an added bonus to bring our music to an even larger audience. We can’t wait to get up there and give everyone a glimpse of what a Ninth Circle live show is all about!” explains Frank.

The event, originally scheduled for February 2009, has been rescheduled for Monday, April 27th, 2009 at the Irvine Improv in the Irvine Spectrum. The Red Carpet begins at 7 PM.
