The John Steel Singers continue to take their catchy blend of Brisjanglian pop to the nation, inking a deal with hit label, Levity®, for the release of their next EP, ‘The John Steel Singers: In Colour ‘ on November 1st, 2008.
Produced by Scott Horscroft (The Panics, The Presets, Wolfmother), the EP takes the unique pop sounds honed on their mini LP, ‘The Beagle and The Dove’ to a new level on an epic scope. 
Working with Horscroft was a joy for The John Steel Singers, drawing on his experience in the studio to flesh out the experimentation in their songs, whilst maintaining a simple pop presence.  Plus, he “plays a killer tambourine”.
The new tracks bring more instrumental focus to each track. Treading the fine line of indie-pop, reminiscent of the Go Betweens, Dexys and Wilco, but with their own special twist of horns and harmonies, The John Steel Singers bring their unique style to life in full colour.
“We've worked on the tone colour of the arrangements a lot more.  We also made a conscious decision to make the rhythms more direct and simplified. The songs to me seem a little more forward thinking than our first record, distilling the obvious ‘60s influences and letting the songs dictate themselves by the rhythmic structures and melodic variations. There seems to be a darker mood to these tracks, both lyrically and sonically.  We're quite proud of the work we've done and hope that it represents a transitional period for us,” says songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Scott Bromiley.
Single ‘Strawberry Wine’ saw them picked up on triple j rotation and community radio and kicked off a bevy of fans and media jumping on board The John Steel Singer’s fan boat. The band went on to win the triple j Big Day Out Unearthed competition and have since toured with the likes of the Polyphonic Spree, The Panics, Yves Klein Blue, Built To Spill, The Brunettes, Young and Restless and many more.
