Music:Member Since: 4/21/2006Band Website: www.thirteenoriginal.com Band Members: Travis Shumate - Vocals, Guitar, Keyboards Christian Powers - Guitar, Vocals, Sleigh Bells Adam Meeks - Bass, Vocals, Keys Adrian Centoni - Percussion, Vocals Ben Wheeler - Keyboards, Vocals, Guitar Influences: History, Almanacs, Photographers, Encyclopedias, Maps, Side A & Side B. Sounds Like: "Sleep Patterns (is) a seven song warning, announcing Colonies' ambient and intellectual arrival to the world of new-school indie rock." ---The Weekly Volcano "Colonies is probably the best indie rock band that you haven’t heard of. Yet." ---Redefine Magazine "...Colonies combines intelligence and ambience. Gentle keys and samples flavor heavy, bombastic percussion courtesy of Centoni, while Shumate's ethereal vocals float above the band's instrumentals. Crystal-clear guitar work cuts through the haunting, atmospheric quality of Colonies' songs, and the band somehow remains sonically captivating even in tense moments of quiet noise." ---The News Tribune "...music that constantly recalls the moments after a summer storm. The rapid-fire cymbal action of drummer Adrian Centoni is a perfect counterbalance to the weary vocals coming from Travis Shumate. Their newest album, Sleep Patterns, is another chance to bolster your musical IQ." ---Rich and Blake Recommend ORDER OUR DEBUT CD ONLINE NOW! CLICK TO BUY ONLINE! OR DOWNLOAD IT FROM ITUNES NOW!
