]]><![CDATA[APACHE WARRIOR]]>Mon, 06 Jun 2011 03:00:00 -0500http://www.thecolorbars.com/1/post/2011/06/apache-warrior.htmlNew Color Bars album almost done (we promise) and it sounds GOOD.  Though we can't claim to have reached the height of artistic mastery that Tommy Seebach has, we feel like we've gotten pretty close.  In case you haven't seen this, you might want to break out the moccasins and faux leather tassles before pressing play...

BACH]]>Fri, 20 May 2011 03:00:00 -0500http://www.thecolorbars.com/1/post/2011/05/animated-color-bars-courtesy-of-js-bach.htmlWhenever people ask about The Color Bars' band name, I usually fumble through a slightly labored explanation of the phenomenon known as synesthesia and the experience of "seeing" sonic textures in music as bars of color with varying thicknesses and lengths, inevitably boring both the person who asked the question and myself in the process.  From now on, I'm just going to tell them to watch this video.  Pay close attention.
