Flying Colors is an American progressive rock band comprising members of several other rock, prog and fusion bands. It was formed in 2008 based on a proposal written by record company executive Bill Evans. Once the bulk of the band was constructed with the talents of Neal and Steve Morse, Dave LaRue and Mike Portnoy a search took place to find the charismatic singer and frontman required in Evans' blueprint. It was decided that singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Casey McPherson fit the template and he joined the band shortly before they chose a name and began recording. This lead to their self-titled debut album, recorded in Neal Morse's studio in 2011. It was remixed at the legendary Electric Lady Studios and released in 2012. This, as with the second LP in 2014 was followed by extensive live touring. A third LP entitled 'Third Degree' was released in October 2019 with the band supporting it with a number of live performances.
