Meet City and Colour

Oh, the sweet sound of Canadian singer/songwriter, Dallas Green. Guitarist and vocalist for Alexisonfire, City and Colour is the solo acoustic effort from Green. The self-described “risky” side project has definitely been a success. His award-winning second album, “Bring Me Your Love,” showcases his songwriting talent while establishing him as one of Canada’s most loved artists.
From “Bring Me Your Love,” you can watch his new video, Sleeping Sickness, here.
You will not want to miss the soothing and intimate sounds of City and Colour, playing at Queen Elizabeth Theatre at 8:00pm on February 15th.
