Colour Haze

Colour Haze were founded in August 1994 in Munich, Germany by Stefan Koglek, Tim Höfer and Christian Wiesner. A first album was recorded by the end of the year and released in summer 1995. It was critically acclaimed and resulted in several nationwide shows for the band. Two years of artistical and personal redirection followed until Manfred Merwald and Philipp Rasthofer joined the group in late 1998 and singer Felix Neuenhoff left the band in Spring 1999 and the band found its final shape.

From this new start in 1999 on it was Colour Haze's very own approach not to follow the mindless, plain hedonistic schemes and role plays of rock'n'roll but to ground their music and their action as a band in a greater, thoroughly positive, spiritual depth, which may be a cause for the mesmerizing experience and positive empowerment often stated by listeners of Colour Haze's concerts and records.

A first appearance at the famous German Burg Herzberg Festival in 2000 opened many doors for Colour Haze and soon the group became a driving force in the growing European stoner rock scene, connecting with bands, promoters and record-shops, mail orders and labels all over the continent and constantly gaining new fans.
