4th of July here in the US is a big holiday – Gulls Window Circus has a big change today, leaving 20 weeks on non-rock shows and returning to rock. In typical fashion, this show varies in timeline and geography, intermingling the known, the unknown, Europe, the US, older and newer. Cover star today is Carl wearing a T-Shirt of Boston’s Richie Parsons, who fronts Unnatural Axe, but also has a solo career with melodic pop.
