Indie Pop Duo Color Fields Share Latest Single “Only Love”
Since released their debut EP last year, indie pop duo Color Fields have returned with their latest single “Only Love”.
The duo, composed of John Torres (guitar, bass, vocals, production) and Scott Packham (keyboards, synthesizers, programming, production), find themselves embracing the lush, expansiveness of electro-pop while remaining approachable and catchy, due to their hook-driven songwriting. And for “Only Love”, the hook came to be fairly organically.
“Only Love” began with a phone call,” shares Torres. “My sister-in-law called me while I was in the studio with a guitar in my hand. As the conversation went on, I started noodling on this guitar riff. After we hung up, I dropped what I was doing and turned my attention to what would eventually become the song.”
“Only Love,” which was produced by Packham, finds Torres reminiscing on past failed relationships while proclaiming a new understanding of the power of love. In the song, Torres also addresses his struggles with anxiety and depression. “John and I collaborate differently on every song,” explains Packham. “We’ve written some great songs where we start things off in the room together, but we’ve also had success where one of us will bring an idea to the other. This time, John brought a really cool piece of a tune and we collaborated from there. We send each other little snippets of things pretty often, but this one stuck out from the first listen.”
Stay tuned for more music from Color Fields, as the pair are expected release five more singles in the coming year.
