The Bright Light Social Hour

The Bright Light Social Hour is an American psychedelic rock band from Austin, TX founded by seventeen-year collaborators Jackie O’Brien and Curtis Roush. Joined by Mia Carruthers and Zac Catanzaro, the quartet combines expansive psychedelia with thundering guitar, gritty harmonies and pulsating rhythms.

Iconoclastic in their mercurial sound, the band has released four studio albums including their 2015 masterpiece Space Is Still the Place and Jude Vol. I & II produced by Chris Coady (Beach House, Future Islands). Along with original soundtracks for HBO, MTV, and Nintendo, the band was tapped by Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) to write and record the BMI award-winning theme for Amazon's Sneaky Pete. Their legendary North American performances number in the thousands featuring Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, and Corona Capital, as well as support spots for Aerosmith, Osees, and The Flaming Lips.

Curated by White Denim’s James Petralli, The Bright Light Social Hour’s latest release is a barn-burning post-disco take on the Beatles’ classic “I Me Mine.” The band is currently working on their fifth studio album in their lakeside production house.
