Lowlight

Pop-punk has always been considered a ‘fun’ genre. It’s seen as an energetic style of expressive punk and has never really been taken seriously. It is perceived as a style played by teens who sing about girls and insert as much profanity into their party-fuelled lyrics as possible. If fun is your first priority then it’s hard to be taken seriously, but on the flip-side, just because you approach music seriously doesn’t mean you can’t have fun. That’s exactly what Perth’s LOWLIGHT plan on proving as they set out to introduce themselves to the nation as pop-punk’s hardest working acts, while still ensuring that they have fun along the way. LOWLIGHT started the same way many Perth bands start, with members meeting through previous bands who all shared the local stages together. Some of these bands take flight and some of these bands stay grounded, but you can rest assured that those individuals who are dedicated to their craft will forge ahead and create something new out of the ashes of the previous bands that all shared those same stages together. This is exactly what LOWLIGHT has done. Consisting of ex-members from some of Perth’s most successful punk and hardcore acts; Break Even, We Are The Emergency, Stars Don’t Fall and Amend with plenty of national and international touring experience these guys are focussed and ready to hit the ground running. LOWLIGHT are just as keen to hit the road as they are to get back to the same local stages that the members first shared when their previous bands were grinding it out. The beauty this time around is that as individuals they all know what works and what doesn’t, and as a band this renewed focus allows them to all work for the same common goal; to create a sound and live show that they’re damn proud of. With a handful of well received local and interstate shows already under their belt, LOWLIGHT are ready to hit the road and they might just become your new favourite band. 5 mates spreading their own brand of punk.
