Lyrics from Colours

Named after author David Lapham’s DC Comic series, Vancouver’s Young Liars serve their indie rock dish with a side of electronic pop. Drummer Ty Badali, vocalist Jordan Raine and bassist Andrew Beck diverged from a former band, meeting guitarist Angelo Ismirnioglou through a Craigslist band member hunt and, consequently, his friend on synths Wesley Nickel to make the group whole. The upbeat five-piece started out in 2008 and debuted with their self-released Homesick Future EP in 2011. The seven-track was later re-released through Nettwerk Records in February 2012, featuring singles “Colours” and “Echoists.” Young Liars predominantly tour Canada, but made a US debut in October 2011 at Filter Magazine’s Culture Collide Festival Los Angeles.
