City & Colour Bio
City and Colour is an acoustic solo side-project fronted by Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green accompanied by a varying number of musicians.
The name City and Colour comes from his own name: Dallas and Green. His reasoning for the name was that he felt uneasy "putting the album out under the name Dallas Green".
Green said that he had been writing material since he was around the age of 14 . Regarding the songs released on his first album, Sometimes, Green said that he had been writing material for it throughout the course of his life, and finished writing songs for it in 2005.
Green began releasing City and Colour songs on the internet for fans to download. Eventually, he compiled and rewrote several of these songs to make his first album, Sometimes. The full length debut was released on November 1, 2005 to a good reception, described by one reviewer as "dynamically gentle and vulnerable". The cover art was designed by Scott McEwan, in a tattoo-esque style; Green "still may decide to have some of them inked at a later point in time".
Green indicated that his view that the "best music for [him] is sad music", influenced the type of songs he created. He also said that he "love[s] music to sort of escape to" and the idea of sad music that people could identify with. Green said of the album that, "a lot of those songs are written on some of the experiences I've been through and stuff and that’s just how I deal with it. I just write songs when I’m bummed out and I feel happier."
Sometimes was re-released on Vagrant Records on January 13, 2009, which was first time the album was available in physical form in the United States.
