Biography:
The Technicolors are an American alternative rock band from Phoenix, AZ, United States currently residing in LA. The band’s line-up includes founder Brennan Smiley (lead vocals, guitar), Sean Silverman (guitar, keys, backing vocals), Nico (bass guitar), and Austin Scates (drum, percussion).
They are best known for their nuanced approach of combining lo-fi, cerebral groove-oriented elements with anthemic, often bombastic themes, reminiscent of the early 00’s garage rock revival.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is the title track single of The Technicolors' latest EP. I'm sure I've messed up a lot of lyrics but
you get the general idea. Not sure if it's recorded with capo 1 but it makes much more sense to play it
with a capo.
[Verse]
This is the main riff played throughout the verse on acoustic guitar. Listen to the song for timing and don't
forget those percussive mutes between chords. Some slap-back delay really helps make the sound.
