Working on my upcoming full-length album that`s releasing later this year.

Bright Lights’ status in the industry was rapidly elevated, thanks to a series of hugely successful featured-vocalist appearances and songwriting credits on hit tracks such as 3LAU’s How You Love Me, Hardwell & Dyro’s Never Say Goodbye and the aforementioned Language. “When you release a record and see some success on it, the sense of pride is enormous,” Heather tells us. “For me, that was a payoff from all of this, seeing the records take off. My latest single just did 200,000 views on YouTube, which is obviously small fry compared to those huge artists like Taylor Swift, but then again, I haven’t got the same amount of marketing power people like that have, either!” For Bright, making a human connection is a vital motivating factor in what she does. “I’d probably say How You Love Me [Heather’s song with 3LAU, aka Justin David Blau] is the song I’m most proud of – that record has touched so many lives. I’ve never gotten so many responses from people who have said: ‘This song changed my life.’ A few months back, I was playing this show, and a couple walked up to me at the end and said: ‘I just have to tell you that How You Love Me saved our marriage.’ I had to stop, the whole room just went silent at that point. It was such a huge statement.”

She was also a featured vocalist on Zedd’s #1 Clarity album. Her latest music video, “Put It Down,” reached 1 million streams in the first week, releasing independently. Bright Lights is currently in the studio working on a self-produced EP slated for release early 2019.

Purple haze Enter Bright Lights: Heather Bright’s artistic identity, and a bona-fide separate creative persona. “This was the time that the purple hair started. I created a new name and I decided that Bright Lights was who I was and this was what I was doing.” Despite this new career clarity, financially, things weren’t looking too peachy. “I had spent all my money and was sleeping in my car for a while. During that time, the song Language, which I’d done with Porter Robinson, came on the radio. I remember thinking in that moment: “I’m broke as fuck, but I’m happier now than I’ve been so far in my music career.” Heather Bright Bright Lights’ status in the industry was rapidly elevated, thanks to a series of hugely successful featured-vocalist appearances and songwriting credits on hit tracks such as 3LAU’s How You Love Me, Hardwell & Dyro’s Never Say Goodbye and the aforementioned Language. “When you release a record and see some success on it, the sense of pride is enormous,” Heather tells us. “For me, that was a payoff from all of this, seeing the records take off.

“I don’t have any session templates in my DAW. I like to keep things open. When I open up a session, it’s free game. I try to do things different – I’ll play around with new instruments I’ve not played with, or a plug-in I’ve not messed with yet...”
