Stay A Bit Longer
Collo feat. Bart Topher
A catchy southern rock style song about a chance meeting and a developing relationship.
Collo has been playing and writing music since the 1970's; but it has taken him until 2019 to have sufficient belief to put it out there.
His music has strong rock origins, but draws on elements extending across the decades from the 1980's until today; with a broader brush of styles including Indie and Alternative rock.
He released his debut EP "The Bluff" in 2019 and followed that up with 6 more singles released over 2020 and 2021.
In January 2022 he released his second EP "The Storm" with the lead track, "Eye of The Storm" receiving press coverage in over 15 publications and strong critical acclaim.
In September 2023 a third EP "Beyond Time" featuring an eclectic mix of 5 tracks was released. The EP has received very strong support on Spotify with modern rock track "I Only Wish" and the fun fast-paced SKA track "Beyond" in particular receiving strong acclaim.
In February 2025 Collo released his fourth EP "Chains and Flames". The EP has been his most successful yet with over 30,000 streams on Spotify received, with the power rock ballad, "Flame In The Wind" and lively rock song "Not Her Way" receiving strong support and positive reviews.
In April 2026 he released his 5th EP "Glitter Girl", featuring companion tracks "Turn It Up 'Til The Neighbors Call" and "Glitter & Coffee" as well as the powerful Pop/Rock track "Breakthrough".
In July 2026 Collo released the alt rock/heavy rock single "Oh Anna" and in October 2026 released his first southern rock style music with the single "Stay A Bit Longer".
He has released 17 singles since 2019, with the songs "Let's Cut & Run", "Burnt", "Glorious.Victorious" and "Who Has Turned Out The Light" in particular being featured on prominent Spotify playlists.
A catchy southern rock style song about a chance meeting and a developing relationship.
This is my fifth EP and I am enormously proud of how it has turned out. The EP opens with "Turn It Up 'Til The Neighbors Call" a 90's style fun party song. Following this, is "Glitter & Coffee", which is a "next day" companion song to "turn It Up...." - featuring the "Glitter Girl", who the EP is named after, Both of these tracks feature the incredible Rob Lundgren on vocals.
I consider the third track on the EP "Breakthrough" as one of the best 3 songs I have released. The style is a bit different (Pop/Rock) and features amazing vocals from Leeloo. The 4th track is Alt-Rock track "The Last Writes" which is consider, lyrically, my strongest track; and completing the EP is power rock ballad "Tomorrowland", featuring one of my favorite vocalists, Jamie Wiltshire.
This is a medium-paced southern rock style track questioning why society seems to be in the dark and wondering how we got here and how it can be addressed. This is a great song to listen to whilst driving in the car.
This is a punchy mid-pace Alt Rock song about a girl who has got into a relationship with a guy who she already had had a failed relationship with previously. Unfortunately this time around it also turned out badly for her as she was "Burnt" by this guy a second time - but she is determined to fight back and move forward from this difficult experience.
The song features strong and impactful vocals from wonderful Italian female vocalist, Dee Wolf.
The song has a blues rock/southern rock feel with shades of the Black Keys, Linda Perry and Florence+The Machine
