Tin Circus was an eight-piece ska band from Santa Rosa, in northern California. They were formed in the early ninties (somewhere around '94 or '95) from a collection of talented local musicians, some of whom were attending the Santa Rosa Junior College at the time, others still in high school, others not in school at all, and soon gained local popularity due to their brilliant live shows. They self-released one twelve-track album entitled "Picture This" under the irreverently-named label "Cheese and Cracker Records" (looks like swiss from the logo) before the band's eventual breakup circa 1998.
