THE POLICE GUITARIST ANDY SUMMERS LAUNCHING A NEW ROCK BAND AND HOPES A NEW POLICE REUNION:

Andy Summers is getting ready to launch a new rock band, Circa Zero, he's formed in Los Angeles with singer Rob Giles; the group's debut album should come out in early 2013, with a tour to follow.

"We definitely want to go out and play," Summers says. "The songs are great, very strong pop/rock, lyrical. Rob has a killer voice. So it's been fun. I'm looking forward to having a go with it."

Note: I sent it to Rob Giles, and he confirmed the new he published it on his FB Fan Page.

Great news Jose! Ya gotta figure with just one albums worth of stuff he will have to pad the set with some Police material.

At last the rock band is coming out ... I've listening to Andy talking about that for a year about, and we got it at last...I look forward to listen to this rock stuff...with Andy on it I am sure I will love it!!!

ooooh, this will be nice to hear. Especially since that super group with Jack Bruce never really came together. Go Andy!

I-am-happy-for-Andy!

This possibly even cooler than The Movie.
At least as equally cool.
Thank you once again, Jose', for passing this on....I needed good news this week!

[quote]Andy Summers, whose distinctive guitar play helped shape the sound of The Police, has found a new musical partner in L.A. songwriter Rob Giles. The duo, going under the moniker Circa Zero, have completed work on their as-yet-untitled ten-song debut and will be announcing a spring release date and series of live dates soon. The Los Angeles-based Summers, a fan of Giles' band The Rescues, met up with the singer/songwriter and the two began writing songs together, a process Giles describes to Direct Current as "a lot of fun" and an opportunity to creatively have "the freedom to do what we want to do". Summers and Giles are currently looking to expand to a trio on the road with the addition of a touring drummer, a role the multi-instrumentalist Giles took on in the studio. "We definitely want to go out and play," Summers tells BILLBOARD. "The songs are great, very strong pop/rock, lyrical. Rob has a killer voice. So it's been fun. I'm looking forward to having a go with it."
