ORPHAN COLOURS was born out of the ashes of folk outfits Ahab and Noah & The Whale, bringing together the band’s collective influences of Rock, Americana and folk. They began with their debut EP High Hopes with singles ‘Won’t Let You Down’ and ‘High Hopes’, produced by Rupert Christie.
After producing a stop-gap acoustic EP to keep fans happy, they went into their own studio and began recording their debut album ‘All On Red’. Singer Steven Llewellyn and guitarist Fred Abbott took on the duties of recording engineer and producer and delivered an album that was nominated for the 2019 Americana UK Awards ‘Album of the Year’.
After touring extensively in the UK and some shows in Denmark the band took a break until 2023 when Steven and Fred went back into the studio to put together the various recordings and demos for their second album King of Alchemy.
The first single from the album ‘Blame It On The Weather’ was released on 12th April with the full album out on 7th June.
The album is available now through the band’s website www.orphancolours.com
