moe. Announces “Circle of Giants” Album, Shares Single “Ups and Downs”

moe. has announced the release of their 14th studio album, Circle of Giants, with the Upstate New York band embarking on a year of celebration that includes the band’s 35th anniversary.

Circle of Giants gives a nod to moe.’s enduring resilience and musical evolution over decades of highs and lows, bringing a fresh sound infused with introspective lyrics, coupled with masterful instrumentation and dynamic energy.

To celebrate, moe. has today released the album’s first single, “Ups and Downs,” a relatable take on the ups and downs of relationships, blending honest lyrics with an infectious groove.

“Ups and Downs” dives into the highs and lows we all face, capturing the rollercoaster of emotions in a way that feels both personal and universal. It’s a track that hits close to home while keeping the energy high. Rob Derhak shares more on the song’s origins:

‘Ups and Downs’ came about from an experiment I conducted during the pandemic in 2020. There was a lot of uncertainty about our future, and the touring music business was especially uncertain. Stuck at home, and left to my own devices, I began working on my home digital recording setup.

I came up with the idea of trying to write songs for people, and ‘Ups and Downs’ was one of those songs. It began with a conversation and a story. A man wanted me to write a song for him that could help express his feelings for his wife and their relationship. He wrote an email about how they met, but what struck me most was when he said, ‘Like anyone else, we’ve had our ups and downs.’ Once I read that, my mind opened up, and I was able to draw from my own experiences in personal relationships, and thus, the song ‘Ups and Downs’ was born.”
Bassist Rob Derhak

Circle of Giants also marks the debut of keyboardist Nate Wilson on a moe. studio release. Having joind the band in 2023, Wilson contributed two tracks to the album, “Yellow Tigers” and “Giants,” showcasing dynamic songwriting and adding a fresh dimension to moe.’s signature sound. Tracks like “Yellow Tigers,” as well as “Band in the Sky” and “Living Again” embody a passion and perseverance that has defined moe. for over three decades.

In the spirit of celebration, moe. has also launched a pre-order for a reissue of their beloved holiday album, Season’s Greetings on festive red, white, and green pinwheel/splatter vinyl. The album bundle, including limited-edition holiday merchandise, is available now on moe.’s official website.

To coincide with the album release, moe. will embark on an extensive winter tour beginning at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR on Thursday, January 30th.

Continuing their commitment to mental health awareness, $1 from each ticket sold will benefit Backline, supporting mental health resources for touring musicians and their families.

Mikaela Davis Announces Intimate Acoustic Solo Tour

Rochester born singer-songwriter, producer, and harpist Mikaela Davis has announced a solo and acoustic tour throughout the northeast, including four stops in New York State.

Multi-talented vocalist, producer, songwriter, and harpist Mikaela Davis has been making waves since her initial release Delivery in 2018. Graduating from the Crane School of Music with a degree in harp performance, Davis bends the rules of genre and sound to her will with each release as she melds her classical training with 60s pop melodies, psychedelia, and driving folk rock.

Since her debut in the industry, Davis has shared the stage with the likes of Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Christian McBride, Bon Iver, Lake Street Dive, and Circles Around the Sun alongside her band members Alex Coté, Cian McCarthy, Shane McCarthy, and Kurt Johnson.

photo by Daniel Bocchino

Mikaela’s upcoming endeavor, however, takes on a less explored and much more personal shape- she has announced a series of six shows throughout the northeast that will feature John Lee Shannon of Circles Around the Sun on the guitar, herself, and her harp. The stripped-back series of six evenings on some of the northeast’s most beloved stages will allow for Davis’ harp background to shine even brighter.

Experimenting with new ideas as well as reimagining some old, she will be making appearances in Albany, Homer, Kingston, and Rochester over the course of the tour’s run in a string of special shows that fans new and old will not want to miss.

Tickets for Davis’ upcoming tour are on sale now, including shows at Ophelia’s in Albany on November 19, the Center for the Arts of Homer on November 20, Senate Garage in Kingston on November 23, and ARTISANworks in Rochester on November 24. For more information and ticket sales, visit her website here.
