Biography

Calling out such stylistic influences as 70s power pop, country, and alternative-rock, Attic Lights formed in Glasgow in the early 2000s. The group took its name from the fairy lit attic used for rehearsals and recordings. The band's debut album 'Friday Night Lights' arrived in 2008 through Island Records. ATTIC LIGHTS is back five year later with 'Super De Luxe' which was released through Elefant Records. An album produced by Francis Macdonald (TEENAGE FANCLUB, NICE MAN) with echoes of CAMERA OBSCURA, THE BEACH BOYS, THE BOO RADLEYS, FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE... A major album, with high emotional voltage that lets you believe in the power of music again. After the release of several Singles the band returns in 2019 with "Love In The Time Of Shark Attacks", maintaining the same pop inspiration, killer melodies and heavenly harmonies that have seen them compared to THE LEMONHEADS, TEENAGE FANCLUB and R.E.M. A collection of absolutely solid songs. The kind that seem unassuming, but you can’t stop playing them, and soon you can’t get them out of your head and they wind up becoming a part of the soundtrack of your life. Because that’s the true essence of pop - those melodies that slip into our lives, and take on a value that is beyond estimatation. Like TEENAGE FANCLUB, VELVET CRUSH, THE POSIES, THE BOO RADLEYS, THE THREE O’CLOCK and so many more. To a world with fewer sharks! At least out of the water.
