Biography

“Upbeat surf guitar, blissful washes of synths, and brilliant bursts of melody make for a decadent dream pop reverie, recalling classic influences like Cocteau Twins as well as contemporaries like Alvvays or Yumi Zouma.” - Under The Radar “A dreamy, warm treat in the dead of winter” - Brooklyn Vegan "Gorgeous, nostalgia-inducing, 120 Minutes MTV-like dream pop featuring plaintive and yearning vocals, reverb-drenched guitars, driving rhythms and the band’s unerring ability to craft an enormous hook.” - The Joy of Violent Movement Brooklyn-based Colatura writes music that is sometimes dreamy, sometimes heavy, with pop-leaning melodies, post-punk atmospherics and surf-tinged guitars. With multiple vocalists, they have been called "Fleetwood Mac with Shoegaze Guitars," and the intermix of vocals alongside jangly guitars and melodic bass lines defines their sound. A staple in the Brooklyn indie scene, Colatura has been featured as a “band we like” by NYC tastemaker Oh My Rockness and described live by Full Time Aesthetic as “like sunshine streaming out of an amplifier with its volume set at nine”. They attended SXSW ‘22 as an official showcasing artist and spent much of 2022 touring to support the release of their debut album, And Then I'll Be Happy. Catch them live at NXNE ‘23, in nyc or on tour in europe in the fall and expect new music later this year :) www.colaturaband.com colaturaband@gmail.com
