Welcome to our neighborhood. Normandy Circle is a motivated and personable band, providing a great show no matter how large or small, calm or loud the audience is. This is because we believe in and love the world of live performances. Normandy Circle not only performs for their audience, but converses and has a great time along with their fans. Normandy Circle's first show was November 25, 2000. Even in this short time, they have produced at an unexpected level for being a local band in Omaha. "The guys" grew up in the same area-a trait which gels and unites them as a team and in their sound. Normandy Circle has played at the Ranch bowl several times, including an opening performance for The Urge. Normandy Circle was included in and went to the semi-finals of 89.7 The River's Battle of the Bands, they also were included in and WON the Mars Music Battle of the Bands. Normandy Circle has also played a benefit for the Omaha school board. Among their performances have been their "Normandy Bash" concerts at Fun Plex, a new venue in Omaha. The first Normandy Bash drew over 700 guests for an indoor venue while over 1300 guests joined them outdoors for Normandy Bash ll. Normandy Bash III - The CD Release Party, was an enormous success drawing nearly 1500 guests and selling almost 200 CD'sthis night was the first available time for fans to purchase the finished Album. Normandy Circle played the Wake board festival on June 9th in Lexington, Nebraska. This event was sponsored by Oakley and many other national corporations. The Wake Board Festival has an opportunity to go on tour depending on the popularity of the event. "Normandy Bash" and "Chill" are currently played on The River, 89.7 FM regularly. This is an honor less than a handful of Omaha bands have been able to experience. Normandy Circle also opened for Blue October in July. Rockfest was yet another great opportunity for the band, being on the same bill as artists like Saliva, Three Doors Down, Tantric, Seven Mary Three, The Toadies, and Our Lady Peace. The true performance of Normandy Circle is not only in the music, but in the energy and stage presence. Please Email with any questions or booking information normandy@normandycircle.com

Story behind the song
Inspired by the troubles of youth and the complications of growing up, ironically could be an "Anthem" for the 9/11 attacks, though it was written in May '00.
Lyrics
I’m not the one son, to represent for this nation, Rollin’ through a neighborhood verbal shotgun. Another fish in the sea I just caught one, Removin’ hooks from a gill with a lyrical skill, The real deal and I’m fit to thrill anybody who comes to check me skill or intent… To repent the souls feelin’ the hot coals burnin’ up the engine. It’s so tempting when I step in the room to feel the vocal boom, With the impact of a 12 Gauge, rollin’ down Q with the road rage Turn another page in your note-book Take your shit of the coat hook and come out hey yo to save some face, Amazing grace how sweet the sound Three hundred sixty degrees right now!!! CHORUS: To the youth of America where you at? Jump up up and down cause this is where it’s at. Wave a fist in the air like this and like that, youth of America where you at? When I step to the mound I’m throwin a fastball right past y’all swing batter batter swing, In the end it’s just a Normandy thing I know it’s kind hard to realize cause your life’s been terrorized I hear the sighs and the cries from all those that fell and all those that rose Unique flows that nobody knows Here it goes from the tippy tippy top. Everytime I strive for perfection, somebody jumps up to make a correction, But really now I see how it works the chord wraps around my neck and then it jerks. Cleansin’ my spirit, I don’t care if you hear it, you are in denial and then you start to fear it. Take a step back take a look at your life then you really see that your livin’ it schife. CHORUS: Repeat How does if feel to live to impress? Got somethin’ to say got to get if off my chest. Hold me close and try to take me in, Breakin’ molecules cuz the air is thin, Cuttin’ through the severence of the Katana blade Step front of the gun you get sprayed Another generation for the gun another generation Stackin’ tons of ones and havin’ tons of fun. We don’t need to run because we know It’s lookin at us in our eyes, we don’t need to hear it and we don’t need the lies. We don’t need to despise, and I think twice and I realize that I don’t need to stay on the ground Amazing Grace how sweet the sound 360 degrees right now!!!
