Biography:
“People say we’re different, but we just try to keep it exciting”, says Paint Me In Colour. The Liverpool-based four-piece, whose sound has evolved from classic indie numbers to genre-hopping anthems, first met at college and through mutual friends, the chemistry sparked from the first rehearsal.
Their previous single ‘Pity Me’ was reminiscent of nostalgic 90’s guitar hooks, and larger-than-life drum sounds and boasts being back by BBC Radio 1, BBC Introducing and Gigwise. Their latest track ‘Pick Me Up’ however, is packed with anthemic vocals, and throaty guitar lines and takes inspiration from alternative artists The Neighbourhood and Paramore, who the band counts as recent influences on their sound, as well as indie icons, Nothing but Thieves.
“Amidst 2pm wake-up calls and questionable highs, ‘Pick Me Up’ is a personal mantra, embracing an indomitable spirit that refuses to be crushed” front-woman Liv Springer explains “We've landed on a sound that we’re truly proud of”.
