Creating music that has one foot in the indie genre and one foot in a darker electronic realm, Crooked Colours’ sound has often been compared to a combination of English indie-rock foursome Alt J and US electronic duo Crystal Castles.
To date the band has been fortunate enough to play at Parklife, Wonderland and St Jerome's Laneway festivals, as well as sharing the stage with the likes of Flume, Grafton Primary and PNAU. 2013 also saw Crooked Colours support RÜFÜS on their sold out national tour.
Crooked Colours will be releasing their 'In Your Bones' EP featuring their hit track 'Come Down' in May this year through Sweat It Out Music! before a full Australian tour in July

Crooked Colours Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Trust me darling,
There's no need to be alone
There's no need to be alone
Let me in YOUR BONES girl
Slow you I'm a LOVER
There's no need to be alone, no
You're alone, burning light
There's no need to be alone, no
There's no need
There's no need
Alone!
Can you hear me baby
Alone!
Don't be alone now
Alone!
Come a little closer
Alone!
Let me in YOUR BONES
There's no need to be alone, no
Show you I'm a lover
Alone!
Can you hear me baby
Alone!
Don't be alone now
Alone!
Come a little closer
Alone!
Let me in YOUR BONES
Alone!
Can you hear me baby?!
Don't be alone now!
Alone!
Can you hear me baby
Alone!
Don't be alone now
Alone!
Come a little closer
Alone!
Let me in YOUR BONES
Uhm
Can you hear me baby
Don't be alone now
Alone!
Come a little closer
Alone!
Let me in YOUR BONES
Alone!
Can you hear me baby
Alone!
Don't be alone now!
Come a little closer
Don't be alone now!
