VINYL-ONLY RELEASE! The Mellons return to wax with their sophomore LP, “Mellons
In Color"! The Utah baroque-pop
quartet invokes the late-60's golden age with a floral concoction of
full-bodied melodies, tender harmonies and maximalist production. Their 2022 debut album, "Introducing...
The Mellons!" received instant praise from Shindig! Magazine, Under The
Radar, Range Magazine and more for their nostalgic, sunshine -drenched good
vibrations - reminiscent of Brian Wilson, The British Invasion, and the
orchestral stylings of groups like The Left Banke, The Association and The
Millennium. “In Color”, produced, arranged, and performed by Andrew
Colin Beck (vocals, guitars, piano, organ, mellotron, tenor saxophone, aux
percussion, claps, Nord Electro 6D, recorder, tubular bells, glockenspiel,
bongos, Ringos, French horn, kazoo, voice-over) and Denney Fuller (vocals,
bass, guitars, trumpet, euphonium, French horn, fife, banjo, mellotron, piano,
organ, aux percussion, toy piano, glockenspiel, slide whistle, Nord Electro 6D,
tubular bells, claps, stylophone, bongos, kazoo). The record also features Ian Francis (drums,
background vocals, aux percussion, bongos, claps), Rob Jepson (vocals, claps),
Glenn Brigman (guitars, background vocals, claps), Nelson Devereaux (flute),
Nicole Pinnell (cello), and Allison King (violin). “On their 2022 amazing debut album ‘Introducing…The
Mellons’, the Utah neo-baroque band used just about everything in their
surroundings that makes a sound, and for their sophomore full-length ‘Mellons In Color’ they
have expanded their arsenal even further. Not as an end in itself, but simply
to mine the late-1960s habitable zone as best as possible, serving up sunshine
psych and baroque pop with an infectious sense of joy. The
fifteen new tracks are packed with orchestral flourishes, playful hooks, and
kaleidoscopic arrangements that must have been lovingly handcrafted. From the
first notes of the short opening tune You’re Invited!, you feel that these guys are determined to
embrace you with warmth. Even the commercial-style breaks add to its charm,
creating a whimsical, immersive listen. Above all, the flawless harmonies and
richly layered instrumentation make this a vibrant, contemporary celebration of
pop’s most colorful era.” - AddToWantList
