Comments: An excellent band. Seven Color Sky captures the 80's scene I adored, but gives it a fresh edge. There is nothing out there right now that can compare, A true gem!
Music types: Alternative, 80s
Description:
Seven Color Sky is a Pittsburgh-based indie band on the rise. A "new-new-wave" band quickly gaining international recognition for their catchy melodies and moody energy. Their modern rock twist on classic new wave has even inspired John Ashton, legendary guitarist with 80's icons the Psychedelic Furs ("Pretty In Pink," "Heartbreak Beat") to produce the band's new EP. The "Better Looking" EP, Seven Color Sky's second body of work, contains four lush, dreamy, radio-ready tunes featuring layers of vintage synths and shimmering guitars, poppy bass and drums, and literate, tongue in cheek vocals.

The band's involvement with Ashton arose out of a mutual respect. Seven Color Sky had opened two Pittsburgh-area shows for the Psychedelic Furs. After their opening set at the 2004 Three Rivers Arts Festival, John and the band discussed the possibilities of working together. John was already a fan of the first SCS album, the 10-song "Secrets About the Stars," and was now inspired by the dynamic live show. The results contained on the "Better Looking" EP speak for themselves.

Seven Color Sky formed in the Summer of 2002, a collaboration between vocalist / guitarist Scott Bedillion, bassist Marc Turina, and synth magician Terry Divelbliss. The results were immediately impressive, and over their two-plus years of existence the band's sound has become bigger and more distinct. It's not difficult to trace the influences for the sound: from the Smiths, to the Cure, to the Psychedelic Furs, SCS takes these influences and melds them into a style all their own. In all, Seven Color Sky sounds like no other band today. A warm, dreamy sound full of 80's romanticism and modern energy. It's new-new-wave: dream pop with an edge!
