If you like your music to be simple, soothing and summery then Calm As The Colour’s Ticket To Liberty will be joyfully welcomed by your ears. Opening track ‘The Rain Must Fall’ is soft and dreamy, with soothing acoustic guitar and distant vocals whilst ‘Good Morning Lassitude’ is a little more upbeat but still maintains that calming summery vibe with laidback vocals. This natural, laidback approach continues through to the more folk rock tracks such as ‘Velvet Sunburst’ and title track ‘Ticket To Liberty’. Whilst the former track sees Darren Roy’s smooth vocals intertwine with drums and guitar over intricate rhythms, the latter furthers his talent as a vocalist, accompanied by a fantastic harmonica-led intro.
