Timeline

1961

Dana Colley (born October 17, 1961) is an American musician, best known as the baritone and tenor saxophonist in the alternative rock band Morphine.

Colley was born in Portland, Maine, but he was raised in Hanson, Massachusetts, where he took up the clarinet in the 4th grade, switching to tenor sax in 7th.

1981

Colley originally appeared in the Boston, Massachusetts indie rock scene playing with the group Three Colors, a post-punk band formed in 1981 whom he joined in 1985.

While Colley established himself as primarily a saxophonist, he also played harmonica with the group.

1984

He picked up the baritone sax in 1984.

1988

After modest success behind several small-run records and a brief relocation to Princeton, New Jersey, the group disbanded in late 1988.

1989

In 1989, Colley co-founded Morphine with front-man Mark Sandman of Boston-based Treat Her Right.

The two were joined by drummer Jerome Deupree and quickly garnered a local following.

1992

Their debut album, 1992's Good, was picked up by the Rykodisc label in 1993, and the band embarked on extensive, successful touring.

Colley's main instrument with the band was baritone sax, but he occasionally sang backing vocals, played percussion or other saxes (tenor, bass or soprano).

Shortly thereafter, Treat Her Right drummer Billy Conway replaced Deupree, who was suffering from health problems.

1996

Following two more albums with Rykodisc, the band signed with the major label DreamWorks Records in 1996.

1997

They scored a minor MTV hit with "Early to Bed" from 1997's Like Swimming, and continued to enjoy local and international success, particularly in Europe.

1999

In 1999, Sandman died unexpectedly of a heart attack while onstage in Italy, bringing the band to an abrupt end.

Following Sandman's death, Colley, Conway and Deupree assembled a nine-piece band they dubbed Orchestra Morphine to tour behind their posthumous final album, The Night.

Orchestra Morphine remained sporadically active thereafter, reassembling occasionally to perform Morphine material.

Musical chemistry between Colley, Conway, and Orchestra Morphine member Laurie Sargent (a Boston mainstay and former member of Face to Face) led the trio to start their own group, Twinemen, a name they took from a comic drawn by Sandman.

2001

Formed in 2001, Twinemen have since released three full-length studio albums and toured extensively.

Continuing a tradition he had begun in Morphine, Colley provided woodblock print artwork for the band's records.

Colley, Conway and Sargent were also instrumental in re-opening the Hi-n-Dry studio and record label, Sandman's former workspace and imprint.

2004

In 2004 Colley produced and performed on "Black Feather Wings", the second release from Bourbon Princess.

2006

2006, Colley co-founded A.K.A.C.O.D. with bassist/songwriter Monique Ortiz of Bourbon Princess and drummer Larry Dersch.

2007

The band released their debut Happiness album in 2007.

2009

Colley and Deupree began playing with New Orleans transplant Jeremy Lyons as Members of Morphine in 2009.

This trio performs classic Morphine songs alongside of new material, and played the ten-year anniversary of Sandman's death at the festival at which it occurred, the Nel Nome Del Rock Festival in Palestrina, Italy, on July 3, 2009.

2011

He also played saxophone and bass clarinet on Dan Brenner's 2011 CD Little Dark Angel, produced by Jay Newland.

2012

In 2012 he played in Italy with the Italian band Rudy and the M.O.B. made by the Italian singer Rudy Marra.

Occasionally since about 2012, Colley has been a guest with several Boston-area bands, prominently the instrumental groups Dub Apocalypse and Club d'Elf.

2013

In 2013 he joined a 3-piece named The Deltahorse, releasing an EP despite never having been in the same place at the same time as the bandmembers.

2014

As of 2014, the trio renamed themselves Vapors of Morphine and regularly performs shows in Boston and New Orleans.

Colley has also made guest appearances with Primus (on live versions of the song "Those Damned Blue-Collar Tweekers"), and Lilium, a project from Pascal Humbert of 16 Horsepower and Woven Hand.

2015

Colley contributed to the album Stewing released in 2015 by The Grownup Noise.

Colley lives in Somerville, Massachusetts with his wife Kate and their two children.

He is also a visual artist, and has attended the Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

2016

They released their first full-length album, "Transatlantic" in September 2016.
