Fighting Colours is a modern rock outfit based on the stony shores of Brighton. Formed in 2020, the four-piece are united by a desire to crank up the volume and embrace heady emotion in Brighton’s alt-rock scene.

Their previous single ‘Your Choice Now’ is all about choices, and the uncertainty surrounding those decisions made at critical moments that can completely alter the plot of someone’s life story. New single ‘The Boat Starts To Shake’ continues the thread that began in ‘Your Choice Now’, sharing its themes of uncertainty after life-altering decisions. Here you’ll find a few of the quirky time signatures that set the Fighting Colours discography apart: a sonic unsteadiness to match the instability described in their trademark storytelling lyrics.

‘The Boat Starts To Shake’ and ‘Your Choice Now’ can both be heard on Fighting Colours’ debut EP. Set to be released on the November 25, the EP spans the wide range of influences and lyrical topics the band have set their lofty sights on. These topics include prescient commentary on the COVID-19 pandemic, an issue that the 20/20 vision of hindsight won’t allow many of us to forget.
