Hot Chip return with ‘Colours' on August 14th on EMI Records, taken from the bands massively acclaimed and now Mercury Nominated album release ‘The Warning' released earlier this year. ‘Colours', transcends its initial child-like innocence to seem both gorgeous and, somehow, profound and follows on from previous anthemic singles ‘Over & Over' and 'Boy From School' in soundtracking the blissful summer months that lie ahead of us. The single will come backed by a twisted new reshape courtesy of the DFA.
Hot Chip will be bringing their live expertise to festivals across the globe this summer. The band have also confirmed a full UK tour in October, which will include the already announced show at London's Astoria on October 11th.
