Help identify a band

edit

My googling skills fail me. This band is a British quartet who opened for New Order in Paris on Wednesday night. They play in a style reminiscent - appropriately - of Joy Division, early Ultravox and Wire. They have a female keyboardist and wore identical black smocks with a name embroidered on the front (the two frontmen had "Taylor" and "Ward" written; the keyboardist was hunched over her instrument during the whole show, so I couldn't make out hers). In the back, there was something like "Bleich" written, although it did not sound like their name when they said it ("we're mumble from new mumble" is what the lead singer helpfully said). One of their songs seemed to be called "True Colours" (but thankfully not the Cyndi Lauper song). Can anyone identify these masters of self promotion ? --Xuxl (talk) 08:25, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

David Attenborough? --Viennese Waltz 13:45, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Marlin Perkins, Jack Hanna, Steve Irwin, and Jeff Corwin have all also done similar shows. If those don't work, try researching at Category:Television series about animals. That may help. --Jayron32 14:28, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also Jim Fowler and Joan Embery. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 21:10, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
