The Colour Tasters

About Me

ModMySpace Profile CustomizerThe Colour Tasters group was formed in February 2008 by Stephanie D (lead vocals) and Trina Nadeau (cello). Over the next year, the band experienced an evolution both structurally and musically. The Colour Tasters have had some membership changes over the past year, but have managed to find a working formula comprised of great musicianship and chemistry. This can now be heard more than ever during a performance. Although the band is new to the scene, The Colour Tasters are industry veterans with a broad range of experiences. This experience ranges from small clubs and theatres to outdoor festivals and television broadcast. Currently The Colour Tasters have taken a sabbatical from performing in order to complete an EP for release in the spring of 2009. “A Sampling of Shades” will be an enjoyable record to listen to. It will be a hint of what is to come when The Colour Tasters release a full length album. (to be announced). A unique sound of rich melodies and acoustic textures, difficult to compare and impossible to describe. You simply must hear for yourself.
