CAJUN DANCE PARTY are a north London quintet, four boys and a girl, only just tipping into their late teens. The band have toured with the likes of KINGS OF LEON and performed scene stealing-slots at last summer’s GLASTONBURY, READING and UNDERAGE Festivals.

The five multi-instrumentalist joined forces for a school Battle Of The Bands, wrote their debut single in their first rehearsal (the soaring, crashing “The Next Untouchable”) and attracted a record label scramble within weeks - resulting in the band committing to XL Recordings.

"The Colourful Life", their debut album, is produced by Bernard Butler (ex-SUEDE).

The nine tracks and 39 minutes of The Colourful Life elevate the five-piece out of the exciting but limiting confines of the new band explosion and into the stratosphere. The songs sound like the latest addition to a rich musical lineage that stretches through ARCTIC MONKEYS, MAXIMO PARK, THE LIBERTINES, THE KOOKS and early SUPERGRASS.
