City and Colour is the recording alias for Juno Award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter Dallas Green, who is also the guitarist and vocalist of the post-hardcore band Alexisonfire. He plays melodic acoustic and folk music and is often accompanied by a rotating number of Canadian indie rock musicians, such as Daniel Romano and Spencer Burton of Attack in Black.
The name City and Colour comes from his own name: Dallas (a city), and Green (a colour). His reasoning for the name was that he felt queasy "putting the album out under the name Dallas Green".
Already renowned across Canada thanks to the success of his previous two full length albums, 2005’s Sometimes and 2008’s Bring Me Your Love, Green is set to propel his profile to a new plateau with the June 2011 release of his third album, Little Hell.
