ColourTelly – Retro Feels, Real Talk & Records That Matter
What do cathode ray tubes, homemade pasta, and Marvin Gaye have in common? They all come up in this week’s My Music – a soulful sit-down with the genre-blurring, era-bending duo ColourTelly.
From analogue gear to digital angst, Graham chats with Evie and Ollie about the stories behind the music, why their name sounds like it might be Italian, and how their sound walks the tightrope between deep dystopian themes and butter-smooth vocals. You’ll hear about:
🎶 How they went from session work to full creative partnership
📀 The "colour" in ColourTelly – and why old gear matters
🧠 The mental overload of modern life – and how their music helps you detach
🥗 Recipes, rooftop studios, and making a song in 40 minutes flat
📆 The big upcoming album drop in October, with a single out in July
🎄 And yes, there’s talk of a future Christmas track (no sausage rolls, promise)
If Marvin Gaye and Massive Attack raised a synth baby in West London, ColourTelly might be what it sounds like. Deep thoughts, great music, and a little cat dancing to start things off.
🌊 Whether you're in the city feeling the pressure or down by the sea with space to breathe, this is an episode that will resonate.
