Colour Me Wednesday

Saw these ladies, Colour Me Wednesday, supporting The Darling Buds at the start of the month, they had a drummer called Sam at the time and I recently found out it was his last show with them, shame that. Hope they find a new drummer soon.

I thought that live they sounded like a cross between The Shop Assistants and 'Allo Darlin' but that might just be me. Whatever the case they were impressive and held their own on a bill that included two Indie Stalwarts from the 1980's - The Popinjays and The Darling Buds.

The band is fronted by sisters Jennifer (lead vocals) and Harriet Doveton (guitar) and Carmela Pietrangelo is the bassist (they've seemingly had a few bass players down through the life of the band and on their album, which we will get to momentarily, they offer thanks to "All the ex-bassists"), as I said, Sam Brackly was on the drums but he is no more (not in the sense that he's departed this mortal coil!).
