Colourshopβs craft for song writing has been honed through playing shows throughout Europe including Netherlands, Poland, Spain, France, Italy and at venues and festivals in the UK. Their uniqueness is driven by their latin roots with compelling melodies and a synergy between the two brothers that delivers amazing harmonies and a tightness live, that sets them apart from the competition.
Growing up in a small town in the hills just outside Rome, they picked up their father's Bulgarian red guitar and at the tender age of 5 (Diego) and 9 (Alfredo) they started to play.
Influenced by artists ranging from Pink Floyd, The Eagles, Neil Young and Italian Singer song-writers, the brothers were driven to learn the piano and grew up sharing every single note of their life.
The two brothers began to record and produce their own music twelve years ago, also developing studio engineering skills which enabled them to produce their own recordings. Their debut album called βThe Summer of my Lifeβ was released in May 2009 with βSparksβ following in 2011.
They moved to London in 2012 to pursue their dream and have already played in some of the most important venues on the singer songwriter circuit; such as The Bedford, The Regal Room, The Troubadour and every open mic night imaginable all armed with an acoustic guitar and an unstoppable dedication.
2013 is going to be an exciting year for Colourshop.
They recently performed in Berlin and started their second Summer tour called βNo artificial colours addedβ which includes several UK festivals and few dates around Europe. They will be releasing their new EP in the next few months including two remastered tracks plus two new ones.
The EP will be promoted through a new tour the next Autumn that will bring Colourshop to play in many venues around the UK.
Furthermore their London experience will be featured in one of the major Italian television channel the next Autumn.
Intune Addicts are working with the band in the UK to help develop their music career.
You & Me
Colourshop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I turn my head and close my eyes
you kiss your lips and bite my neck
I can clearly feel your love
I can clearly see it in your eyes
I will never let you go stop the time
and this will be you and me
you and me will stay like this
you and me will be right here
you and me will share this song
and you will sing along with me
I take a picture of you
you pose like a venus
I sing beautiful mess, beautiful mess
Then you climb on me, I belong to you
I will never let you go stop the time
and this will be you and me
you and me will stay like this
you and me will be right here
you and me will share this song
and you will sing along with me
