Anthony Green

In December 2005, Green embarked on a mini solo tour, opening for Fred Mascherino (ex Taking Back Sunday, as The Color Fred) including a stop in his hometown, Philadelphia, PA on December 27, 2005, which was recorded in full. The set included some Circa Survive songs and some of his own.

After announcing his first solo album called Avalon, Green played three acoustic shows towards the end of December 2007 to give fans a taste of what the album would be like. During the 2008 SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas, he played two daytime shows (including the Alternative Press party) as part of a five-date mini tour. On the Austin dates, he was accompanied by the band Good Old War.

Avalon was released in August 2008, peaking at #44 on the Billboard 200 in the United States.

In August and September 2008, he embarked on his first solo tour in support of Avalon. Members of Good Old War again served as his backing band, but also played their own set as openers of the tour. The main support act was Person L, the solo project of fellow Pennsylvania native Kenny Vasoli, singer of The Starting Line.

Green has made it clear this was only a side project. He plans to remain active in Circa Survive and has stated that the band encouraged him to do something with all the songs he had been working on. According to Green’s MySpace page, the CD was titled Avalon after Avalon, New Jersey where he recorded the majority of the songs.

Green has stated on his website, that after Circa Survive is done recording their third studio album, he will begin working on his follow up to Avalon titled «Beautiful Things».
