Groom - "Colours"

Popical Island’s resident rocking storytellers Groom released their latest album Bread and Jam, a true catalogue of Irish life conveyed through guitar, drums and voice. For the video for their latest song ‘Colours’, which “describes an emigrant’s return to dreary Ireland in the bad times,” a potentially depressing sentiment that is made palatable by Groom’s sunny song outlook and a video by Nicky Coghlan which places the focus on the children of Ireland and their natural wonderment. THE CHILDREN ARE THE FUTURE AFTER ALL. The children in this video are also Groom singer Michael Stevens’ three daughters Norah, Anna and Lois and Nicky’s daughter Sadhbh. Cute.

The song is a free download from Bandcamp. The band play Sweeney’s Retro Revival night this Saturday on Dame Street.
