The Colourist’s success has been unprecedented across the board. From their critically acclaimed Lido EP last year, “Little Games” cemented them as one of the most buzzed about acts on the scene. It was named iTunes “Single of the Week”, garnering over 150,000 downloads. Meanwhile, Amazon dubbed it one of the “Best Songs of 2013”, and it went Top 30 at Alternative radio. The original recording as well as its St. Lucia, Yeasayer, and Magic Man remixes hit #1 on HypeM—the same goes for The Chainsmokers’ remix of “Fix This”. Moreover, “Little Games” entered hearts and minds in several high-profile ad campaigns, while ABC’s Chasing Life and The CW’s Vampire Diaries placed “Yes Yes” during key scenes.
Last year’s Coachella saw The Colourist give a breakout performance, and they went on to support the likes of The Naked and Famous, Panic! At The Disco, Metric, Atlas Genius, Fitz and The Tantrums and more. Coming off show-stopping turns at SXSW 2014, they’re in the midst of their first headline tour.
