CHROMA

Boasting a healthy amount of live notches on their belt, South Wales' CHROMA have previously appeared on renowned stages all over the world including Reading & Leeds Festival, BBC Radio 1’s Biggest Weekend, 2000 Trees Festival along with European festival appearances in the Netherlands, Italy, Barcelona and Brittany plus shows in New Zealand, South Korea and SXSW, Austin Texas.

Supporting the mighty Foo Fighters to a strong 20,000 crowd at Manchester’s Emirates Old Trafford in June 2024, they've also played sold-out shows all over the UK with the likes of The Mysterines, IDLES, Peace, The Joy Formidable, VANT and Tigercub.

The band are also key ambassadors of Music Venue Trust, Ask For Angela (UK) and the Welsh Government’s Sound campaign which encourages young men to learn about gender-based violence and call out misogyny, sexism, violence against women.

Taking its name from the campaign of the same name launched to prevent sexual assault in the UK, the material on CHROMA’s 2024 Welsh Music Prize nominated debut album Ask For Angela variously reflects on the band’s collective experience growing up in the South Wales Valleys, and explores the myriad lived experiences of young women.

Exploring infighting within the feminist movement, the oppression of trans rights in the UK, violence against women, and other weighty but hugely important topics, the trio ultimately invite the listener to a place of safety and empowerment with their inclusive music.
