In this episode of Worlds of Wayne I am joined once again by the Color Pharmacy. On their way to SXSW they spent 2 days in Omaha and hung out at the house. So we set up the laptop, the handy Blue Snowball mic, and had a lunchtime chat.

After relentless touring in support of their last full-length record, The Color Pharmacy are back with an explosive new album, to be released March 2013. Building on the sound and success of Texatonka (released February 2011 and added at #2 on the CMJ Radio 200 charts) the Minneapolis-based trio tracked The Color Pharmacy over only four days at The Pearl Studios with producer Mark Schwandt (White Light Riot, Usonia). Recorded to analog tape, the new album boasts tightly-crafted songs, catchy hooks, and soaring vocal harmonies to create a sonic atmosphere entirely unique to this genre-bending band.
The Color Pharmacy have appeared with many noteworthy artists, including: Adele, Tom Morello’s Street Sweeper Social Club, Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins, Ted Leo, Peter Himmelman, and Ben Kweller. In addition to releasing and touring in support of their new album, 2013 will also mark the band’s fifth year performing at the acclaimed South By Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas. Hard-working, easy-going, honest, and artistically ground-breaking, The Color Pharmacy are sure to be embraced by an ever-expanding audience of music lovers everywhere.
