Bio

One girl, three boys. Making music that feels good and sounds good. Music that is danceable, fun, quirky, emotional and dark; Painted Cities sounds like all the characters at a fair who grew up and became part of the Carnival; different and twisted but unique and beautiful in their own ways.

                                                    LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, MAY I PRESENT TO YOU:
                                                                                   PAINTED CITIES!

Hailing from Vancouver, Matt, Katie, Sol and John have shared the same passion for music since they came together in 2006. Reminiscent of a 90's rock band, their songs are unique in feel and energy while retaining a consistency through memorable song structure. The foursome recorded their demo album "First Coat," in 2007 with local musician and friend Tom Prilesky of The Wind Whistles. With a sound that can be described as classic/quirky, tracks such as "Carnival", "Acorns" and "Coffee Song" are featured on the bands up-and-coming debut album, which is being recorded with Geraldo Dominelli at Mushroom and Cobweb Studios. The ten song album is set to be released in early 2010.
