  • Combine the ethereal sounds of Air with a touch of Bowie and Morrissey, and you'll get the tip of the iceberg of Colored Shadows. The band combines complicated, cinematic music with compelling vocals. Though we could draw a myriad of many contemporary comparisons, Colored Shadows' attention to detail is what makes them stand out from the crowd. Vocalist and bassist Lucas Field sat down with LAist and discussed what it feels like to work in LA (as a band comprised of non-LA natives) and gave us some hints at what we could expect from the band's forthcoming album. If this interview wets your appetite, then make sure to catch Colored Shadows during their October Monday night residency at Spaceland.

    free gigs to keep you occupied.
