Denver's ultimate vibe-band - ManyColors is a palette of musical soundscapes that paint the most profound vibe you could ask for. A myriad of sonic textures that flow through the music, hitting listeners like the perfect moment in the perfect day.
ManyColors is a band that defies categorization. They are a four-piece group from Denver, Colorado, who blend jazz, hip-hop, and lo-fi sounds into a unique and original soundscape. Their music is like a journey through a kaleidoscope of colors, textures, and sonic passageways.
The band is the brain-child of guitarist Brant Williams, one of Denver’s most talented pickers, whose take on lo-fi funk acts as the genesis of the band’s sound. Braxton Kahn (drums) adds to that vibe in abig way, offering beats that few others can successfully replicate. Denver’s well known keyboardist Eric Luba adds added texture and Kirwan Brown fills out the grooves on bass.
In February of 2019, ManyColors released their debut single, "Bangs" on Color Red records. Have a listen, below.
