ABOUT COLOUR TONGUES:
Since their inception, Colour Tongues have taken hits and weathered storms, both literally and figuratively, and they’re still alive to tell the story. Coming from a variety of influences and life journeys, the band has survived mountain blizzards, floods and car crashes to bring you dreamy and high-energy nostalgic rock - taking you on a journey to the 1980's and back to the present, with a stop-off in the early 2000's. The fundamentals of the music combine elements of math and progressive rock with shoe-gazy indie pop.
Since their joining the boys have played 60 shows in over a dozen cities, achieved radio play in most Canadian Provinces and 10 states in the US. Their February 2020 single "Control" recently capped 100,000 Spotify streams and 20,000 Youtube views, and their latest single release "Fire" had its premiere on Indie88, Toronto's premiere Indie rock station.
When the pandemic hit, Taylor (now a Clinical Nurse Leader) was deployed to the first COVID-19 outbreak in Canada. The boys still managed to stay active though, playing a handful of live-streams, and completing recording of their debut LP, "Midnight Island", coming out in May 2022. Colour Tongues returned to the stage with a sold out show in Vancouver in September 2021 and were back on the road in October.
In December 2021, the boys organized "The 7 O'Clock Cheer - a celebration of BC's healthcare workers". The show was held at the Imperial Theatre in Vancouver and included a video address by Dr. Bonnie Henry and $2,000 raised for charity.
The band has big things planned for 2022 including festivals and a Cross Canada tour for the release of "Midnight Island". We'll see you soon.
