The Reds, Pinks And Purples will release companion record ‘True Love Daydream’ on September 25th.

The project is led by ever-industrious songwriter Glenn Donaldson, a key figure in the wave of entrancing indie pop emanating from San Francisco, and the West Coast more generally.

Recent album ‘Acknowledge Kindness’ won yet more acclaim, but sessions proved to be so fruitful that Glenn Donaldson has arranged a companion piece.

Out on September 25th, new EP ‘True Love Daydream’ was written during the same spell as the parent album, but has a character of its own. The songwriter describes it as “a little boat set adrift off the shore of the main album.” 

The track ‘Heaven Of Love (Slow Version)’ is the first to emerge from the EP, with Glenn Donaldson commenting:

“This was the original version of this song. Some of the lyrics and melodies are totally different than the album version. When I came to the end of making the Acknowledge Kindness album, I felt there were too many ballads, so I re-arranged it as more of a pop song. But this might be the true form of this tune. The ending is more emotional. The song is more feeling than thinking, so it’s hard to explain what it’s about, but it’s true that sometimes we need to imagine there’s an Earthly heaven that’s just out of reach.”

Tune in now.
