CirKus


CirKus are a trip hop band formed by Burt Ford, Karmil, Lolita Moon and Neneh Cherry.

History

DJ and producer Karmil was recruited by Burt Ford as an assistant recording engineer. They began to work on their own material at Karmil's home studio in London. Ford was singing, then Karmil's girlfriend Lolita Moon was asked to sing on some tracks. Eventually Neneh Cherry joined the team and performed rapped/sung vocals. Ford and Karmil convinced Cherry to move to Sweden and the band settled in Cherry's country house near Malmö and recorded their first album Laylow, released in 2006. They are currently based between Stockholm and London.
Laylow received negative reviews from the BBC, stating it as "mostly uninspired and smoothed to an unpleasant sheen."
The group released a second album, Medicine, in France in March 2009.
