Bio
.."The name of the band is a perfect description of the music, it's like staring at beautiful clouds all day...it's Postal Service as fronted by Feist..." .. - www.musicsnobbery.com .. .."Scarr's velvety smooth voice (often likened to '1 2 3 4 singer, Feist) perfectly mixes amongst the band's serene instrumentation and ambient electro beats." .. - www.theregoesthefear.com .. .."Color of Clouds brings us a bit of magic in every way possible...and after listening to them, I think you'll see why. Oh so sugary." .. - www.knoxroad.com .. .. "The music is gorgeous and includes harmonies that combine the vocals of the enchanting Kelli Scarr along with her counterparts Daniel Chen and Nate Greenberg. There are orchestral leanings, indie pop hooks and soundscapes that will definitely bring them to many wanting ears.".. - www.slowcoustic.com .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... .. .......... .. .. .. ............ .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... .. .. .. .. ...... .. .. ..Indie-folk outfit Color of Clouds hails from Brooklyn and Queens, New York. The group is essentially a songwriting duo, made up of singer Kelli Scarr, who appears on the Roots single 'Birthday Girl', as well as on several tracks on Moby's latest record, and producer Dan Chen, who co-writes with Nicole Atkins, Natalie Walker, and Ivana XL, to name a few. Kelli and Dan have known each other for years, having been part of the electro-rock band Moonraker (2000-04), and have always kept in touch - performing and playing on many of each others' projects over the years. During the summer of 2008, Chen and Scarr had both just come off tour, each with a handful of fresh new songs, and in the studio, they were surprised to find that many of these were similarly themed, and similar in style. They decided to merge their efforts into a new project, and Color of Clouds was born. They recruited another Moonraker alum, Nate Greenberg, to co-produce, and released 'The Look EP' in 2009. The EP was well-received, described as a mixture of indie folk/pop: "sweetly textured pop songs with orchestral leanings, tinged with electronics". Color of Clouds released their follow-up, Satellite of Love, in the spring of 2010 through Stuhr Records, and already several songs from the album have appeared on TV shows (Ugly Betty, One Tree Hill, Damages). Both the 'Look EP' and 'Satellite of Love' are available on iTunes as well as in select local music stores. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .... .. ........ .. .... .. .. .. ........ .. .. .. ........ .. .. .. .... .. .. .. ........ .. .. .. .... .. .. .. ........ .. .. .. .... .. .. .. -
