Sammy Hagar and his CIRCLE bandmates have once teamed up via the Internet to record music.
After previously connecting via their smartphones from four separate locations to lay down a brand new song titled “Funky Feng Shui”, as well as covers of THE WHO‘s “Won’t Get Fooled Again”, VAN HALEN‘s “Good Enough”, BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS‘ “Three Little Birds”, BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD‘s “For What It’s Worth”, Little Richard‘s “Keep A-Knockin'” and AC/DC‘s “Whole Lotta Rosie”, among others, they have now regrouped — in a virtual sense — to cover SAMMY HAGAR AND THE WABORITAS‘ “Sympathy For The Human”. Check out video of the performance below.
Hagar said: “This song has always been one of my favorite’s from the WABO era. Whenever we started a show with this song it always ended up being a great one. Sympathy for the Human — ain’t it the truth.”
This past May, SAMMY HAGAR & THE CIRCLE‘s U.S. tour with NIGHT RANGER was officially canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic which is sweeping the globe. Produced by Live Nation, the outing was scheduled to kick off July 9 in West Palm Beach, Florida at iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre and make stops in Tampa, Cincinnati, Dallas, Phoenix and more, before wrapping September 20 in Chula Vista, California at North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre.
Joining Hagar in THE CIRCLE are bassist Michael Anthony (VAN HALEN, CHICKENFOOT), drummer Jason Bonham (BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION, JASON BONHAM’S LED ZEPPELIN EVENING) and guitarist Vic Johnson (THE WABORITAS).
THE CIRCLE‘s first album of all-original material, “Space Between”, was released in May 2019 via BMG.
