Formed in 1982 by brothers Martyn and Steven Young, Colourbox drew on influences as varied as blues, soul, rock, reggae/dub and funk, they combined elements from each with movie dialogues and weird and wonderful samples. Vocalist Debian Curry was recruited to sing on their 1982 4AD debut "Breakdown"; Currie was replaced by Lorita Grahame in 1983. After releasing the mini-album Colourbox in 1983, they released a couple singles and began to work on their first full album, 'Colourbox', which garnered great reviews and topped the UK independent chart in 1985.
