I doubt you’ll find any themes or plugins designed for that exact purpose, but it wouldn’t be hard to roll your own solution. For example, if you put your text in a post or page, with each “band” in it’s own paragraph, you could add in some simple CSS to get the desired effect.
p {
padding: 50px;
color: white;
}
p:nth-child(odd) { background: red; }
p:nth-child(even) { background: blue; }
