History
For a period of eight years from 1992 until August 2000, Zachary Stevens was the lead singer of Savatage. After five albums with the group, he left in 2000 citing family reasons. During the winter of 2001, Zak started his comeback with long-time friend and co founder of the band, Dan Campbell, co-writing material with former Savatage lead singer Jon Oliva and guitarist Chris Caffery what would become the songs for the Circle II Circle debut album, Watching in Silence. The second CIIC record The Middle of Nowhere featured Zak's vocals along with band members Paul Michael Stewart, Andy Lee, Tom Drennan and Evan Christopher.
The band's third release was a concept album, entitled Burden of Truth, based around the concept of Jesus' descendants. It was released on October 13, 2006. Recently, Stevens and the band signed with Intromental Management. Their fourth album, entitled Delusions of Grandeur was released on April 25, 2008.
Artwork for the band's album covers has been created by artist Thomas Ewerhard. Additional artwork for the concept album "Consequence of Power" (2010) was created by Claudio Bergamin
