  • Bio

    .. ............Myspace Layouts.. - ..Image Hosting.. - ..Comments.... Colourblind were formed around 1998 by brothers Alistair (Guitars) and Shaun Galea (Drums & Percussions), which were later joined by Paul SKY (Vocals) who at the time played drums and violin and happened to rent a rehearsal space a few meters away from them. Keyboardist Etienne and Bassist Adriano joined the band a little later and Colourblind was born. Individually all band members derive their inspirations and ideas from a vast array of diverse artists and musicians and this was maybe the determining factor in forging their unique style of progressive/AOR style. Not much has changed from back then apart from James joining forces with the band in 2006 after the departure of Adriano, yet there is one major realization which can maybe only come through experience, as a legendary musician once said "It's not the notes you play it's the spaces between them that matter". With this in mind the band still plays technical progressive music but never to the expense of the groove or melody of a song. Thus although the signature progressive elements are still there they are much harder to trace since much care is taken in the selection and placing so as to make their style of music a bit more accessible and ear friendly! In 2008 the band started to work on their first full length album and started to experiment adding a female voice 'JoZi' to add harmony to their vocals and in 2009 the album 'Spectre' was released and given the results expect to hear and see more of JoZi in the band. Change is an inevitable part of life, one can choose to fight a battle lost before it has even began, or embrace it and take on the new challenges it brings. The departure of Etienne in 2010 from the band has presented to the band a new challenge and they decided to take it with a renewed sense of adventure, exploring new ideas and musicians on the way and though we don't know exactly what will happen we are sure you can find us where the music takes us! Know in the present days the band has changed a lot vocalist Paul changed his violin to a guitar JoZi is 100% part of the band and a new addition is Alvin Galea who happens to be Alistair's and Shaun's brother is the new keyboard player. In January 2012 the band entered their studio with one thing in mind, a new album…..work is in progress and be ready to hear new things from them!!! The band line up in the present days is: Paul SKY (Vocals & Guitar), JoZi (Vocals), Alistair Galea (Guitar), Shaun Galea (Drums & percussion), James Micallef (Bass) and Alvin Galea (Keayboards) . <!-- Facebook Badge START --><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Colourblind/201734619849711" target="_TOP" style="font-family: "lucida grande",tahoma,verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11px; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: #3B5998; text-decoration: none;" title="Colourblind">Colourblind</a><br/><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Colourblind/201734619849711" target="_TOP" title="Colourblind"><img src="http://badge.facebook.com/badge/201734619849711.2056.449552808.png" width="120" height="218" style="border: 0px;" /></a><br/><a href="http://www.facebook.com/business/dashboard/" target="_TOP" style="font-family: "lucida grande",tahoma,verdana,arial,sans-serif; font-size: 11px; font-variant: normal; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: #3B5998; text-decoration: none;" title="Make your own badge!">Promote Your Page Too</a><!-- Facebook Badge END --> <object width="425px" height="360px"> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"/> <param name="movie" value="http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/embed.aspx/m=,mr=108799120,t=1,mt=video"/> <embed src="http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/embed.aspx/m=,mr=108799120,t=1,mt=video" width="425" height="360" allowFullScreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"/> </object> ...... ...... ...... ......
