About

Color is Matt Langley on saxophones, Jamie Decato on drums, and Chris Decato on rhodes piano. We've been playing the seacoast area for 12 years or so. Most recently we've played a creepy soundtrack to "The Cabinet Dr Caligari" showing downstairs at the Muddy River to benefit the Portsmouth Halloween Parade last Oct. In 2006 we did a soundtrack to "Nosforatu" also for the Portsmouth Halloween Parade.

We've put out 2 CD's: "Voicemeal" in 1996 & "Nowhere in Time" in 2000, so a new Color CD is long overdue... We are planning a sort of return to our roots in 2 ways. We are cleaning out Matts garage to make room for us, which was our first long term rehearsal/writing space... 1995-98?? (hard to believe!) The other way is in the method of writing/recording. The 1st time we ever recorded (back in 1994) we set up some mics and an old JVC 1/4 track analog deck... noodled on an idea for a bit, then recorded it... I'm thinking we'll do this one that same way, except we will record with an old Apple G4 400 running Pro Tools 5.1

UPDATE!! We completed the RPM Challenge, and put out "Does the Have to be a Purpose" in March 08... It can be found on iTunes, (search for the album name seams to work best, I've got to figure out how to link right to it!) or found on CD Baby here: http://cdbaby.com/cd/colorjazz
