Coloura

Coloura turns chaotic nights and broken hearts into pop rock tunes with the power to move people. This four-piece act from Cebu started out as an afterhours college band with founding members Jake Russel Relacion (vocals) and Robert Michael Lim (bass) playing an eclectic mix of cover songs that would eventually influence the band's musical direction and growth. Their first original track as a group, released under their previous name Dox, was a funky track called "Shirley", a strong start to what would eventually become a prolific songwriting repertoire for the duo.

With Emil Baleva (guitars) and Ziv Zoleta (drums) joining the permanent lineup, the band renamed themselves Coloura. They wasted no time in releasing another catchy single called "Losing My Mind", this time leaning into the anthemic pop rock sound that would come to define the band.

At present, Coloura has undeniably become a pillar in the booming independent pop rock movement happening in Cebu. Their well-received EPs In Between (2022) and Love and Influence (2023) etched their name permanently as a force in the local scene.

After a year-long hiatus from releasing music, the band reemerged in 2025 with their most ambitious project yet - their self-titled debut full-length release Coloura, which was launched in August of that year to an ecstatic audience of both long-time fans and new discoverers alike. Songs from the album such as "Only Connection" and "2016" have become instant classics with their catchy melodic hooks and highly relatable narratives.

Coloura is now set to make their Manila debut in 2026 at the Meltdown Manila roster showcase - a humble beginning to the band's wider ambitions to win hearts across the nation and the world.
