EPISODE 40 - City and Colour, Dallas Green from my Home Town - Sleeping Sickness and Underground - External Version

Dallas Michael John Albert Green (born September 29, 1980) is a Canadian musician, singer, songwriter and record producer who records under the name City and Colour. He is also known for his contributions as a singer, rhythm guitarist and songwriter for the post-hardcore band Alexisonfire. In 2005, he debuted his first full-length album, Sometimes, which achieved platinum certification in 2006. City and Colour began performing in small intimate venues between Alexisonfire tours.[3] 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 uneasy "putting the album out under the name Dallas Green

"Sleeping Sickness" is the second single from City and Colour's second album, Bring Me Your Love. The song features vocals from Gord Downie, the lead singer of The Tragically Hip. The single was certified Platinum in Canada on December 10, 2018

Prolific singer-songwriter Dallas Green has announced the latest album in his City and Colour catalogue, previewed by new single "Underground." The Love Still Held Me Near arrives on March 31 via Still Records, an imprint of Dine Alone. The sixth album follows 2019's A Pill for Loneliness. The 12-track record was co-produced by Green and longtime collaborator Matt Kelly, chronicling the most difficult period of the artist's life — including the tragic death of his best friend in 2019, as eulogized in previous single "Meant to Be." "The Love Still Held Me Near was born out of unimaginable loss and the subsequent journey through the grief and heartache that followed," Green said in a press release. "It's about digging deep down into yourself and attempting to unearth hope and light in the things that can comfort you through those times. For me that has always been writing and recording music, so that's exactly what I did." Life-affirming new single "Underground" sees the singer-songwriter's soulful exploration of gratitude through. "Like a great Canadian darkness, I will cover you," he sings, expressing his desire to protect his loved ones after suffering a great loss.
