Throughout many years, Bradford has experienced strains within the community, and this album, Urban Colours was seen as an opportunity to bring together young people from across the city, Halifax & Leeds, representing a variety of backgrounds and experiences. The album, which was recorded in 2007 and was available in Christian bookshops nationwide, distributed by ICC Studios (from June 2007). ICC no longer operates as a company, but the album can probably be obtained via the Salvation Army.
It is intended to appeal to young people and will make an excellent outreach or worship tool with youth groups.
In its time, it was a fresh and unique RnB album featuring songs made famous by Mary Mary, Cyndi Lauper, Tim Hughes, Joan Osborne and Hillsong plus many more!
