Donny Hue And The Colors
One day, Ed fell into a hole in the ground. Donny was frightened, but knew he couldn't leave his friend stranded, so he jumped! He fell for a real long time.
Darkness followed.
When he awoke he found himself in an underground world. Organs, autoharps, melodicas, glockenspiels, and theremins cluttered the floor around him. Donny searched high and low, but Ed was nowhere to be found.
Devastated that he had lost his best friend and was trapped in this godforsaken place, Donny fell into a deep depression. Every day he drew pictures of a time and place where he and his friend climbed mountains of glass, laughed at giant clocks, and dug tiny holes in their hearts.
Through these pictures he began to find hope, and vowed to create a world of such magnificence that it would be a beacon for Ed to find his way home. He called this world the wunderground, and invited his not-so-ordinary friends (the Colors) to help create the siren sounds that might bring Ed back.
Together they have created the collection of songs you are holding: lush, magisterial lullabies, shimmering chamber pop, psychedelic nursery rhymes gone horribly awry, and ghostly, incandescent dreamscapes.

Fans of those wonderful Elephant 6 bands of yore, Bob Dylan circa 1966, and Syd Barrett may find this collection particularly pleasing. Highly Recommended!
