Skin&Earth Acoustic marks a new era for Lights. Not only is the singer releasing her album July 12 but she has announced that she has signed with Fueled By Ramen. Skin&Earth Acoustic looks to be the singers best acoustic effort yet. Completely produced and mixed by Lights herself, the singer went above and beyond for this release to make it feel as authentic as the Skin&Earth comic by recording it in settings corresponding to their chapters in the comics.

Skin& Earth Acoustic features acoustic versions of 7 tracks taken from 2017’s Skin&Earth album, plus 3 NEW TRACKS.

Toronto songwriter Lights’ greatest gift is her ability to cloak thoughtful lyricism in catchy dance-pop jams. That prowess is on full display on the thrilling Skin&Earth. Her luxuriant voice swoops and zags across a killer hook on “Skydiving,” but she also packs in lines like, “I take the leap without a parachute/’Cause I can’t keep my hands away from you,” painting with gorgeous detail where others might settle for a simple topline. “Until the Light” does the same over a beautiful tropical beat. And while a track like “Savage” might switch gears with a strutting rock riff, it’s no less sensual or invigorating.

Alt-pop icon Lights releases her new project dEd via Fueled By Ramen. Lights goes on to say about dEd: “After each of my last four albums I’ve released acoustic counterparts, it’s something that fans expect at this point. But PEP never felt like an acoustic thing to me. I actually haven’t picked up my acoustic guitar in a long time, it’s just not right for this era. PEP is alt, hyper and vibrantly sarcastic, visually extravagant and exaggerated in all forms, so I wanted its counterpart to be the absolute opposite: dark, chill and electronic. I enjoyed really developing my production toolset, digging into the chill step genre, using heavy bass tones set on dreamy soundscapes. If PEP is for dancing and feeling yourself, dEd is for driving and making out. After all, dEd is PEP turned upside down—even the track list is reversed.”
