Catch Kyoto-hailing all-female punk band Ni-Hao! this Thursday, Feb 28 at Temple Bar, a riot of styles that are mashed together with reckless abandon – hip-hop, techno-pop, speedcore – sometimes within the span of a second. It’ll be insane, hyperactive, jarring, and yes, tons of fun, and leave you reeling and questioning what the hell you just heard – pure attitude and punk in its most distilled form.


They kick off their China tour alongside honorary Beijing showstopper Octopoulpe and Xiao Wang.

The Colors hail from Ulaanbaatar and have been playing their brand of indie-pop since forming in 2010. The fivesome are currently on tour in China and tonight play their Beijing stop at School Bar!


The Colors gave themselves this name with the hope of becoming a new color not only of for Mongolia but also in the music industry worldwide. Critics write that their music is so sunny that it seems like Ulaanbaatar must be a city in the tropics, not in Central Asia. Leading up to their winning performance in the "White Arch Studios Spot Light" contest in 2013, they had already become synonymous with the youth of Ulaanbaatar. Their contract with the White Arch Studio allowed them to create their first album, "Mr Pigeon, What Year is Today?" Since then they have continued to gain popularity with performances in Russia, Korea, and well-known Mongolian music festivals. Currently they have just completed another EP "I am Falling Into The Sky," which will be the first vinyl issued in Mongolia since 1986.


Join us for this special night with The Colors.
