The Southern United States, while beautiful and peaceful as it seems, has had a long history of violent racial conflicts.

For hundreds of years in America, the South were known as slave states where white slave-owners owned African slaves who were forced to work on plantations every day, the American Civil War broke out due to this issue.

After the Civil War ended and the African-Americans were freed, many extremist hate organizations, such as the Ku Klux Klan emerged in attempts to stop the African-Americans from voting or gaining equal rights.

There problems are not a thing of the past either, many recent racially charged issues, such as the Trayvon Martin case that happened in 2012 show that there is an unseen struggle between races in the South.

When Alexisonfire guitarist and vocalist Dallas Green quietly began to release solo acoustic tracks on MySpace, his intention was purely to create and share his own music with fans of the band. Not long after the release of these early solo acoustic tracks, fans became eager to hear more from City and Colour, and in 2005 Green re-recorded his early demos and released them online as a full-length album titled Sometimes.

The success of this first release began to lead to moderate fame, and with that came a shift in focus from Green’s band to his solo work in City and Colour. While the name for Green’s project may sound like a band name, it was initially just Green alone, with the moniker serving as an allusion to the words that make up his name: the City being Dallas, and the Colour being Green.

Over the years Alexisonfire have performed on and off again, but Green’s solo project has kept moving and has expanded, growing from a one-man act into a full band after the release of Bring Me Your Love. Today the group’s music is written, created, recorded in studio, and supported on tour by a band of fully dedicated musicians.

Ever since the recession that began in 2007 thousands of jobs have been lost and the United States have become trillions of dollars in debt.
