The New Colony Six
Biography
The New Colony Six were an American rock band of the 1960s, although the group also specialised in lyrically romantic pop songs.
The group was formed in 1964 in Chicago, Illinois. Their biggest local hit was 'I Confess', taken from their first album 'Breakthrough' (1966). After the success of 'I Confess', they had more minor hits like 'Love You So Much' (1968), 'I Will Always Think About You' (1968) and 'Things I'd Like To Say' (1969).
