Prime Circle, South Africa's premier rock band, will be ROCKING at the Barnyard circut on March 22, 2010.

Prime Circle is currently on a roll with their third and latest album, All Or Nothing having just gone platinum. This comes on the back of their hugely successful Consider The World tour,

Barnyard audiences can expect to hear Prime Circle's latest hits from their hugely successful All Or Nothing album which include their first three hit singles Out Of This Place, She Always Gets What and Consider Me. Also in the line up will be their classics like Hello, My Inspiration, Same Goes For You, Let Me Go, Crazy World, As Long As I Am Here, Maybe Wrong, Live This Life and Miracle.


Prime Circle have gone from a rehearsal room in Witbank, to become one of South Africa's most popular and talked about bands. To say that they have been a success story since its formation in 2001 is an understatement!

Prime Circle's debut album, Hello Crazy World, was released through David Gresham Records in 2002 and went on to achieve Platinum status. Their debut single, Hello, started their roller coaster success trip. Not only was Hello adopted by the South African cricket team as their theme song, but it was also instantly recognisable for its use in a popular television and radio advert. This song also stayed in the High 5 @ 5 on 5fm for 21 weeks, and was the most played local song on national radio station, 5fm, in 2002.

Prime Circle became the most active touring outfit on South Africa's live circuit, performing in every major city and headlining all the major live festivals in the country.

On the back of their major success from their debut album, Prime Circle went back into the studio to record their second album. Live this Life was released in September 2005, and within twelve months the album achieved Gold status.

Prime Circle's career highlights include nominations for the Crystal Awards (three years in a row), You Spectacular Awards and The Star In You Kids Awards. In 2005 the band was voted as the Best Local Band in a Leisure Options survey for the Reader's Choice Awards. The band has also been recipients for the Best Local Artist at the 2006 FHM Guy Awards.

The band has since experienced international sell-out shows and has shared the stage with international mega superstars including Metallica, The Rasmus, Simple Plan, Live, Collective Soul, Incubus, Peter Gabriel, Goo Goo Dolls, Kaiser Chiefs and Good Charlotte to name but a few.

Festivals that Prime Circle have played at include the Dubai Desert Rock Festival, the 2006 Coca Cola Colab Massive Mix, several 46664 appearances, and the 2008 My Coke Fest.

The band consists of Ross Learmonth on vocals and rhythm guitar, Dale Schnettler on drums, Dirk Bisschoff guitar and vocals, Neil Breytenbach on keyboards and Marco Gomes on bass guitar.
