UK band COLT began as writing duo Living With Eating Disorders ; Andrea and Jared met in a west London recording studio and on the strength of demos attracted the interest of legendary producer John Fryer.
In August 2004 they released their debut EP ‘White Like Snow’ and the end of 2004 saw the band support ‘Psychic TV’ and ‘Whitehouse’, but increasing pressure forced the band to withdraw from the public eye and on the 16th March 2005 LWED performed their last gig - a multi media gallery project ‘parliament of monsters’, with live sets, projections and sculptures.
Keen to move beyond the controversy surrounding the name, the band returned in October 2005 as COLT, with their debut album 'These Things Can't Hurt You Now, So Throw Them In The Fire' to critical acclaim from the independent worldwide press.
COLT released the new EP "You hold on to what's not real", featuring four new tracks, and remixes by Arlen Figgis and William Bennett, on their own label Obvious Records ; on the 12th May 08 and have just released the video for 'Black Rabbits'.
'These things...' and 'You hold on...' (with extra bonus track 'Sugar') are available to download from iTunes and also available to purchase from:
