Smith with drummer Cory
Eberhard, is back with a bang, kicking off a fall tour that
encompasses all of the U.S., including Amos Southend in Charlotte on
Sept. 24.
Fresh off their summer
tour which included stops at Electric Daisy Carnival, Bonnaroo, High
Sierra Music Festival, Rothbury Music Festival, Forecastle Festival,
Camp Bisco, 10K Lakes Festival, and a show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre,
Pretty Lights is ready to get back in front of their fans this fall
with stops including the Symbiosis Gathering and a headlining slot at
Trinumeral Festival. Accompanying the raw intensity of Pretty Lights'
live performance this fall, will be a dose of cutting edge lighting
and LED technology that will push optical boundaries over the edge.
Pretty Lights will be touring this fall in conjunction with the
release of the new album Passing By Behind Your Eyes (Pretty Lights
Music). The album, set for release October 6, is the first album of
brand new material since 2008's two-disk Filling Up The City Skies and
begins yet another remarkable new chapter in this producer's career.
With more than 150,000 downloads of disk Filling Up The City Skies
online in the past 9 months, Pretty Lights continues to juxtapose a
collage of beautiful vintage samples against backdrops of futuristic
synthesis and dirty broken beats, creating a sound that can snap your
neck while simultaneously shedding your tears. At a time when music
lovers from almost all subcultures and genres are finding common
ground in the basic form of banging beats, Pretty Lights is giving the
people what they want; electro organic cutting-edge party rocking
beats that fill venues with energy and emotion and send dance floors
into frenzies. The group's spectacular live shows, filled with
powerful beats, have become synonymous with their name and they are
becoming an institution in the touring industry as they continue to
fill venues nationwide. Pretty Lights sound is not only getting
around, it's spreading like a virus.
