COLATURA

bio//

 

Colatura writes music that is sometimes dreamy, sometimes heavy, with pop-leaning melodies and fuzzy guitars. A staple in the Brooklyn scene, who recently relocated to Pittsburgh, Colatura was named a “band we like” by tastemaker OhMyRockness.com and described live as “like sunshine streaming out of an amplifier with its volume set at nine”. Colatura performed at SXSW '24, as part of the Space Agency Booking showcase at Hotel Vegas, and at the Women That Rock showcase, presented by Austin Monthly. In previous years they have been official artists at SXSW, NXNE, and New Colossus Festivals, and just performed at Seattle’s Capitol Hill Block Party this July.  They have shared a stage with bands such as Nation of Language, Hinds, Slow Pulp, Toledo, Pom Pom Squad, Thao, Sea Lemon, Been Stellar and Jessica Lea Mayfield, among many others.  In 2022, Colatura released their debut album, ‘And Then I’ll Be Happy,' which was featured on Spotify's All New Rock playlist and by publications such as Brooklyn Vegan, Consequence, Under The Radar, and Austin Town Hall.  Colatura supported the album release with a sold out show at The Sultan Room in Brooklyn and with two US tours. In July of 2024 they released 'suffer dude,' the first single of an A/B side produced by Aron Kobayashi Ritch of Momma, which was met with praise from outlets such as KEXP, Under The Radar, and Atwood, and which landed them as the featured artist of the week on WFUV and WYEP radio stations.  They recently signed a booking contract with Annibale Records and will be touring Europe and releasing more new music later this year.

“A dreamy, warm treat in the dead of winter.”
-BROOKLYN VEGAN

"With varying styles which range from synthy post punk new wave to early 60’s girl group vibes, I would say the easiest way to describe Colatura is they’re like sunshine streaming out of an amplifier with its volume set at nine."

-FULL TIME AESTHETIC

"Gorgeous, nostalgia-inducing, 120 Minutes MTV-like dream pop featuring plaintive and yearning vocals, reverb-drenched guitars, driving rhythms and the band’s unerring ability to craft an enormous hook.”

-THE JOY OF VIOLENT MOVEMENT

"Every dream-pop fan has listened to Mazzy Star, and most would agree that they created the dreamiest music. While the genre has surged in popularity over the past decade-plus, few bands have been able to replicate their brilliance. But then comes a group from the Big Apple who invite us back to the early ’90s and dazzle like Hope Sandoval and David Roback once did.”
-THE REVUE

"Drawing on a range of influences from '50s female-fronted outfits to Manchester post-punk and all manner of noisy things, Colatura sounds both of and out of its time, delivering music that seems to have always been"

-POPMATTERS

"With the jangliest of a dream-pop essence that flirts easily with Sunflower Bean / Wild Nothing comparisons, This NY based trio have produced consistent beauty in recent releases and this single is no exception."

-JANGLEPOPHUB

"A slow-burning yet hot rising slice of enchanting dream pop with a hypnotic vocal delivery and some ruminating shoegazy guitars. There is a melancholic and lovely presence to it all that shows a great deal of promise for the record if the rest of the album hits as warmly as this one."
-WE ALL WANT SOMEONE TO SHOUT FOR

The upbeat surf guitar, blissful washes of synths, and brilliant bursts of melody make for a decadent dream pop reverie, recalling classic influences like Cocteau Twins as well as contemporaries like Alvvays or Yumi Zouma."
-UNDER THE RADAR
