Someone from another forum (The Sports Depot) mentioned this gal in a topic. So I looked her up. I never pass up a good opportunity for some new music. Its really amazing stuff. The style she does is electro pop or the new tern coined 'Dream Pop" with a taste of futuristic synths.



From what I have read on her, she basically does it all. From her bio:

"Most twenty-two year old pop stars have an army of professional image sculptors behind them: producers, songwriters, stylists, and abused assistants. But LIGHTS, who grew up all over the world, is used to traveling light. So she decided she'd simplify things by doing all those jobs herself. "It's easy to misconstrue a young girl singer as a total puppet. I am the opposite of that. This is what I do. I am LIGHTS." "

Basically she is the group known as LIGHTS, kind of like one of my favorite Musicians Tom Shear who is literally the entire group of Assemblage 23.

Here are some of my favorite songs of hers that I found on youtube:

Its like a girl version of Owl City.
I liked it. Gonna look her up myself now.

yeah I really like her stuff.

She's also literally 8 days younger than me lol

Born in the same year and month lol

Kinda reminds me of a modern Kate Bush.

is that a good or bad thing?

Good. Kate Bush and Valerie have really similar voices and music styles.

Its not really my style, but its pretty good, and listenable (unlike 95% of whats out there today).

yeah I like her stuff

I've always like the electro style stuff
