"The path from upbeat and poppy in the beginning to airy and emotionally charged in the final song is mirrored in the lyrics and exposes who Colony House is. (8.5 out of 10)" - Paste
"The rock-tinged tune mixes a foot-tapping tempo with lyrics that stoke introspection..." - People
"After releasing an EP last year, the indie rockers of Colony House are back with their first full-length album that is both contagious and uplifting." - NashvilleLifestyles.com
Los Angeles, CA- July 30, 2014- The Nashville rock trio Colony House released their debut album When I Was Younger on July 22, 2014 via Descendent Records<http://www.descendantrecords.com/> (The Lone Bellow) to raving reviews. The album charted #3 on Billboard Heatseekers Chart, #7 on the iTunes Alternative Rock Charts and their single "Silhouettes" continues to be the #1 played track on SiriusXM's Alt Nation with 50 spins per week. When I Was Younger is now available on iTunes, PRESS HERE<https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/when-i-was-younger/id876070472>.
The lead single "Silhouettes" is also the most downloaded song by SiriusXM AltNation listeners from the SXM site and is spinning on Alternative radio stations across the nation in Portland, Albany, Colorado Springs, and more.
On the heels of the debut release and single success, the band announces the second leg of their U.S. tour that will hit over 20 cities throughout the fall. Colony House will be touring with Knox Hamilton, an Arkansas based band who are also receiving heavy play on Alt Nation.
"We couldn't be happier with the response we've gotten about the album," says lead singer / guitarist Caleb Chapman. "It was a true labor of love but honestly, nothing is better than playing these songs live."
Chapman writes effortlessly infectious tunes that resonate with personal experience and emotional depth. The songs' messages of hope and perseverance are matched by the organic musical rapport of Caleb and his bandmates, brother Will Chapman on drums and Scott Mills on lead guitar and harmony vocals.
"Creating this record had such a strong set of contrasting emotions: joy, hope, frustration, sorrow, uncertainty, confidence," says lead singer / songwriter Caleb Champan. "The songs I write have always come from deep places, whether they're deep places of joy or deep places of hurt, and it can be hard inviting people into those places with you."
The gritty rock edge that resonates throughout the album can be seen in the music video for "Silhouettes" that NPR First Watch recently. PRESS HERE<http://www.npr.org/event/music/314625502/colony-house-silhouettes> to watch.
The band finished off the first leg of their U.S. tour earlier this month playing to packed crowds in New York, St. Louis, Indianapolis, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and their hometown of Nashville.
