About LIGHTSONLOVER.

lightsonlover. is a genre-fluid pop project blending elements of EDM and hyperpop into a dynamic and evolving sound. Originally formed as a 4-piece guitar band in 2018, Lightsonlover. released their debut EP titled Bittersweet; and a follow up single in 2020 titled Home. The group underwent a major transformation during the COVID-19 pandemic, emerging in 2024 as a solo act that now thrives on a sound based on authenticity and versatility, while wearing their influences on their sleeve.

Driven by the need to explore a wider range of musical influences, lightsonlover.’s sound is no longer confined to one genre. Instead, it embraces the full spectrum of pop, drawing from both electronic and experimental styles to create a unique sonic identity. Themes of mental health, self-discovery, and navigating all types of relationships are at the core of the music, offering an introspective yet relatable experience for listeners.

Despite the challenges of a hiatus and rebranding, lightsonlover. is poised to make a strong impact in the coming year, with plans to take the new sound live and connect with a wider audience.

About HEARTBREAK HOTEL

Heartbreak Hotel is a conversation with myself, born from the anxieties of growing older while navigating the complexities of mental health. The song is about the fear of being stuck in that emotional state while feeling pressured from therapists to use church or religion as a way to heal.

Musically, the track draws heavily from 80s sound design, with programmed drums, lush synths, and reverb-soaked vocals creating a nostalgic yet fresh soundscape. However, the journey to capturing the right mood wasn’t easy. After cycling through 3 or 4 different versions, I took a break from the song to avoid “demoitis”—becoming too attached to early drafts. Returning with fresh ears months later, I knew this final version was the one.

As the ‘title track’ for the current project, Heartbreak Hotel bridges the past guitar-driven sound with the newer, synth-heavy direction. Whether listeners are drawn to the mid-tempo beat or the subject matter of the lyrics, I hopes the song brings value in whatever way it resonates with whoever wants to listen to it.
