We're not dead honest! We've just been hibernating in a creative songwriting kind of way.
Picture us all like sleeping bears in our Colours Run cave building up energy ready for the new year. Expect lots of new things in 2008 including regular Vlog entries on YouTube, a new look coloursrun.com and a new album for your ear lobes!

Thanks to everyone who has kept in touch and showed their continued support.
We can assure you your attempts to wake us have not squandered our creative 'sleep' and we promise that this year will be a new and exciting one for you and us.

Keep checking out the site for updates!!

Cheers!

Colours Run and Cancer Research HELP US!!!

Wed, 08 Aug 2007 11:37:57 GMT

We were recently approached by Daniel Crowhurst of Cancer Research UK, and asked if we'd like to help raise money for the charity in a very special way. Lots of famous acts, including Liam Frost, Guillemots, Emiliana Torrini, Newton Faulkner and your very own COLOURS RUN, have submitted copies of their own handwritten lyrics, which are now being auctioned to the highest bidder. Absolutely all of the proceeds of this will go to Cancer Research UK.

You can see the official website for the auction here:

http://www.beforetheygetfamous.com/index.html

Our submission is the lyrics to Beautiful Waste Of Time, written by yours truly on a unique watercolour painted by Veronica Cameron. You can see it, and bid on it, here:

Last year's auction raised over £1200 for charity, and they're hoping to do even better this year. But we NEED YOUR HELP! If you can spare a few bucks, please bid on our lyrics, and help us do the charity proud.

Many thanks.

Website update

Thu, 28 Dec 2006 17:31:20 GMT

I've made a few changes to the website - the most impressive of which is the inclusion of an RSS fed news page which you're most probably reading right now! If you've no idea what I'm talking about don't worry, I'm not entirely sure either.
PS. for those of you who a) are in the know and b) give a toss, here's the address of the aforementioned feed.
