There are at least two artists operating under the name LIGHTS.
[1] Canadian singer-songwriter Lights Poxleitner.
Lights Poxleitner (born Valerie Poxleitner, 11 April 1987), known by her stage name Lights, is a Juno Award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter. She is best known for composing and performing synthpop music such as the songs “Drive My Soul” and “February Air” and has performed internationally. She recently changed her legal first name to Lights, which was formerly Valerie.
Lights was born in Timmins, Ontario. She was raised by missionary parents and spent much of her childhood in various parts of the world ranging from the Philippines to Jamaica. She is of German and Austrian descent. Lights currently lives in Toronto.
When she was asked about when she wrote her first song, Lights has said “I was eleven, and I learned three chords on the guitar. It was the first time I really learned how to play guitar and I wanted to write a song with them so I went down to my mom and I said pick a number between 1 and 150 and she picked 5 or something, I can’t really remember the number, but I went and opened up the Bible and there was 150 Psalms already written so I went to the number she chose and wrote a song with that and that kicked off the biggest thing of my life.”
or;
[2] An audio/visual project and avant-folk four-piece from Brooklyn, New York.
