Multi-talented UK singer/songwriter VC Pines drops his new single “Colours” alongside an announcement for his long-awaited debut album MRI and debut UK headline tour. The artist sure has a lot on his plate and is geared towards giving his fans the most thrilling experience with his genre-bending music and performance style. The single in question “Colours” is a vibrant experimental pop affair tinged with soulful elements and distinct sound design that gives it that off-kilter edge. VC Pines’ vocals are layered and lively while the heartfelt lyrics tap into the listener’s deepest emotions. The song dwells on rambling drunken text to one’s ex and the down pour of emotions that come with being vulnerable, under the influence and the overwhelming feeling of regret the next day.

With images of brain scans and x-rays becoming a symbol of his latest material these last few months, the album title MRI’ comes as no surprise to those paying attention. Recently diagnosed with epilepsy, having suffered from seizures since he was seventeen years old, the sound of an MRI has been omnipotent throughout his recent years, and now becomes the inspiration behind his new full-length release.

To celebrate the release of his debut album, VC Pines is also planning an extensive run of headline shows – tickets on sale 10 am Friday, May 5th, HERE,  and festival appearances later this year, including slots at The Great Escape, Secret Garden Party, Boardmasters and many more. See below for the full list of live shows coming up.
