Flea Circus began October 27, 2020 in an infested apartment in Little 5 Points. Hannah Neal and Isaac Bishop, both active with numerous Atlanta bands, were looking for a separate musical outlet, based more on free performance, noise, and chance. After a few DIY recording sessions straight to tape, the project began evolving with their first live performance at Elliott St. Pub in June of 2022, featuring the addition of Cooper Dozier and Henry Kellam. 

Gradually more collaborators began joining, with members ranging from Atlanta bands such as Vessel, Lowtown, Swellshark, Slime Ring, Scare Quotes, Resident Purple, and Come Senior among others. A session at Mirror Mirror Recording in August 2022 led to the January 2024 album, Machinator, also the debut for their adjacent label, flz recordings. 

Flea Circus has continued their experimental improvisations since, with performances at Live at WREK 91.1, Eyedrum, Innerspace, 529, and Aisle 5. The addition of visual effects by Ford Kent has added to the experience of their live show, while the ever changing lineup and adventurous approach guarantees a new experience every time. Various members have also collaborated on adjacent projects, such as flz recordings' Isaac Bishop - Intention EP and hannahbolecter - Reverse Gorgon, as well as upcoming releases for Flea Circus, John Pierce, Slime Ring, and more.
