Circles Around the Sun

Circles Around the Sun is a 2012 album by United States indie/roots folk band Dispatch. It is their fifth full-length studio album, the first recorded in over a decade. Speaking with Songfacts.com, the band's vocalist and guitarist Chad Urmston said how it felt recording with Dispatch after all that time: "It's always challenging to put an album together with three different song writers. But being 12 years older and taking all that time away helped as we had a better appreciation for each other." The pre-order was made available on June 5, 2012. The pre-order included various bundle packages, and a download of the track "Josaphine". Synthpop artist Adam Young of Owl City did additional programming on the album.

The song "Circles Around The Sun" was featured in the 2012 video game Need for Speed: Most Wanted and a basic cable and satellite television networks Disney Channel and Disney Channel Asia, as well as Disney Channel original series, Girl Meets World, Stuck in the Middle, and Liv and Maddie.
