COLOUR ANNOUNCE FIRST LONDON SHOW OF 2018

NEW SINGLE ‘BLACK’ RELEASED JAN 16TH

‘THE FAMOUS BOY MAKING THINGS’ EP RELEASED EARLY 2018

“Peter Gabriel On Steroids” – Shortlist

“COLOUR are a very good band indeed” – CMU Daily

“Irresistible, there’s just something about it” – Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6 Music

“Completely beguiling, intelligent, artful pop music” – Clash

“COLOUR have an alluring psyche and edge that firmly puts them ahead of the pack” – Record Of The Day

COLOUR announce their first show of 2018. They play SPOTLIGHT at London’s Camden Assembly on Tues 16th January alongside Sick Joy and 485c. The gig coincides with the release of brand new single ‘Black’. The 3rd track to be taken from their ‘The Famous Boy Making Things’ EP, which is available now.

It’s been quite a year for COLOUR. Last month they released their new single ‘Minus’ (as featured on Record Of The Day). The track, mastered at London’s famous Abbey Road studios by Christian Wright (Coldplay, Radiohead), was described as a dark anvil of a song. ‘Black’ continues in this tradition with hints of Royal Blood at their heaviest while keeping its feet firmly in the bands newly coined ‘micro-prog’ category.

COLOUR burst on the scene in 2016, championed by BBC Introducing, Clash and Shortlist amongst others. The EP was co-produced by COLOUR and Dan Swift (Kasabian, Snow Patrol) and was recorded at the band’s own COLOUR Studios on the northwest coast of England. Says Dan of the band: “Average bands sound like their heroes, good bands sound like other good bands and great bands sound like themselves. COLOUR are a great band”.

Having wowed crowds in London with gigs at ‘Gold Dust’ in Hoxton and Birthdays in Dalston, as well as storming sets at the Great Escape Festival and Kendal Calling, COLOUR are excited to return to the capital in January. Before the year is out though, they will play a charity show for Popped Music on December 8th in Liverpool.

COLOUR RELEASE VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE ‘MINUS’

‘THE FAMOUS BOY MAKING THINGS’ EP – RELEASED AUTUMN 2017 

“Peter Gabriel On Steroids” – Shortlist

“A profoundly independent pop explosion” – Clash

COLOUR return with their brand-new single ‘MINUS’, available now via the bands own COLOUR Recordings.

Mastered at London’s famous Abbey Road studios by Christian Wright (Coldplay, Radiohead), this is COLOUR’s boldest song to date. A dark anvil of a song that singer James Tidd explains is about “how debt can pile up and yet, can be hidden easily in normal life”.

COLOUR burst on the scene last year, championed by BBC Introducing, Clash and Shortlist amongst others, they are set to release their brand-new EP ‘The Famous Boy Making Things’ in late autumn 2017. After the successful release of the EP’s first single ‘Slow’, which prompted the band to coin the genre ‘Micro-Prog’, ‘MINUS’ is a unique step forward in the same vein.

The EP was co-produced by COLOUR and Dan Swift (Kasabian, Snow Patrol) and was recorded at the band’s own COLOUR Studios on the northwest coast of England. Says Dan of the band: “Average bands sound like their heroes, good bands sound like other good bands and great bands sound like themselves. COLOUR are a great band”.

Having wowed crowds in London with gigs at ‘Gold Dust’ and ‘Birthdays’, as well as storming sets at the Great Escape Festival in Brighton and Kendal Calling, COLOUR launched the EP recently with a show at The Seabright Arms in London. They also play EBGBS in Liverpol on November 1st as part of Liverpool Live Music Week 2017.
