Orange Lights
Click Your Heels

unsigned

WE SAY

Orange Lights are from Newcastle and their vocalist is Jason Hart, formerly lead guitarist with Spirtualized. They're managed by former Muzik editor Ben Turner who also manages Rob da Bank. They're available for both records and publishing and they have taken an unusual route thus far, recording a ten-song album with Coldplay producer Ken Nelson before they've played a gig or built a website, let alone been shopped. Ken turned down several signed projects to work with them, and on tracks like Click Your Heels, it's easy to hear why - there's some magic there, from the lovely simple intro onwards. This is their first press. The buzz starts here.
