Common Cycles is a London, ON based band, coming together as 4. Joe Cassis, Michel Lafontaine, Max Helperin, Seamus Parker.

Early Years (1999-2003): The band formed when Lead Singer and guitarist Joe Cassis, met Michel Lafontaine (Guitar, Drums) in elementary school. The band began as the two of them, under alias, and they released a demo/ep "Memories".

Change of pace (2003-2006): Joe and Mike played endlessly, hyping the demo and hyping the live show. But after a while, they became tired of being a two piece, and began a search for other members. Although ambitions were high, they just couldn't seem to find people devoted enough in order to create they music they wanted. Max Helperin, a friend, decided that after his project "Linus" disbanded, he would jam. The two boys, lunged Max into playing shows with them, and is now in the band fulltime. As a 3 piece they began writing new material, the songs began to get better, but the shows started to slow down.

Hiatus & Seamus (2006-2008): When the shows began to wind down, so did the jamming, and the productivity. Joe had just been disbanded from his home, and Mike was focusing on school. In the midst of the tragedy they knew as their band coming to an end, Seamus Parker, came into their lives, and their band, as bassist, and the jamming, became emense and hot. The boys formed an unstoppable force, and began writing all new material.

L.P. (2009): Joe finish's what is ment to be the first full length album for the band. Compiling the new stuff and some of the old stuff. Coming together, the recording will begin in the summer of 2010. The tour will begin in the winter of the following year.
