The band was formed by brothers Martyn and Steve Young, along with guest singers, until Lorita Grahame joined as a permanent member in 1983.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColourbox stood apart from their then-4AD labelmates - bands such as Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, and This Mortal Coil (although the Young brothers contributed to tracks on the latter project's first two albums It'll End in Tears and Filigree \u0026amp; Shadow). Their sound was eclectic, drawing from reggae and soul influences (with covers of tracks by U-Roy and Augustus Pablo released as singles), to beat-box driven hip-hop rhythms, contemporary pop to Art of Noise-style scratch 'n' dub sound collages, often with snatches of sampled dialogue taken from classic Brit-flicks, sci-fi films and spaghetti westerns.\u003c/p\u003e","musicPath":"/music/Colourbox","playStationPath":"/stations/113573635/play","stationId":113573635,"bioPath":"/music/Colourbox/_full_bio","similars":[{"musicPath":"/music/Sigue+Sigue+Sputnik","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/1b2/1b2febd7b3253826a6c4c18f0a306d86_md.jpg","artistName":"Sigue Sigue Sputnik","artistId":5119,"station_id":113410981},{"musicPath":"/music/Missing+Persons","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/796/7960cba735ab3436c041420a357ee3c1_md.jpg","artistName":"Missing Persons","artistId":1960,"station_id":113538112},{"musicPath":"/music/Red+Box","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/bd7/bd7c99ac729d0c54c964ac491cafd605_md.jpg","artistName":"Red Box","artistId":7863,"station_id":116127897},{"musicPath":"/music/Tones+on+Tail","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/c8d/c8dc696828735234753ceba66bafd774_md.jpg","artistName":"Tones on Tail","artistId":2025,"station_id":113573914},{"musicPath":"/music/Adam+Ant","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/636/63624e2cc6935736b67bc52095b507fb_md.jpg","artistName":"Adam Ant","artistId":31,"station_id":113313125},{"musicPath":"/music/Yazoo","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/ec8/ec8a95086ed97e395a0f4ce5754bbf56_md.jpg","artistName":"Yazoo","artistId":1627,"station_id":113338843},{"musicPath":"/music/Anne+Clark","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/db4/db4e2d7b3e55e2abe014675046a47757_md.jpg","artistName":"Anne Clark","artistId":117582,"station_id":283168598},{"musicPath":"/music/Big+Country","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/8ef/8efaa521e38f05fd1ee9816448f992e4_md.jpg","artistName":"Big Country","artistId":12439,"station_id":113292004},{"musicPath":"/music/Siouxsie+and+The+Banshees","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/17b/17b7e097fe2eff4bbc80280084b3680d_md.jpg","artistName":"Siouxsie and The Banshees","artistId":1923,"station_id":113347578},{"musicPath":"/music/Propaganda","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/0f4/0f409eb33bba0f1e0cc52052f7f9afe0_md.jpg","artistName":"Propaganda","artistId":348991,"station_id":392066747},{"musicPath":"/music/Adam+The+Ants","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/619/619b5188a64b688902c7ec3b0523da54_md.jpg","artistName":"Adam \u0026 The Ants","artistId":30,"station_id":113485424},{"musicPath":"/music/A+Flock+of+Seagulls","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/2c7/2c70284e7b3699a9c63320abfb71a30a_md.jpg","artistName":"A Flock of Seagulls","artistId":6312,"station_id":113273902},{"musicPath":"/music/Simple+Minds","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/49b/49b49492fef797806ae92051135b1691_md.jpg","artistName":"Simple Minds","artistId":676,"station_id":113341212},{"musicPath":"/music/Prefab+Sprout","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/fe1/fe1c09bbe6f760d83ae5f31cfb960402_md.jpg","artistName":"Prefab Sprout","artistId":7393,"station_id":113432618},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Bolshoi","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/71e/71eff753a6421ccd65dd8730e196a93e_md.jpg","artistName":"The Bolshoi","artistId":101788,"station_id":280763887},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Mighty+Lemon+Drops","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/fc4/fc43ba5822b1b64923a3b06157251976_md.jpg","artistName":"The Mighty Lemon Drops","artistId":51336,"station_id":234415642},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Icicle+Works","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/eeb/eeb71d5444883c8f28633be7d7b1434b_md.jpg","artistName":"The Icicle Works","artistId":1465,"station_id":113597667},{"musicPath":"/music/The+The","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/dcd/dcdad3f1ee966832a6667578b5bd8ab2_md.jpg","artistName":"The The","artistId":1663,"station_id":113374696}]}
