Gaslight

Gaslight is an explosive trio from Copenhagen that mixes the pulse of punk with the atmospheric retina of shoegaze. With a wall of sound and explosive live energy, Gaslight takes the audience through an emotional fever dream that turns reality inside out. The band consists of bass, guitar and drums and is driven by the brotherly unity between the three friends for almost two decades.

Gaslight was originally conceived in 2015 as a musical refuge for the three teenagers Magnus, Christoffer and Jeppe. Here they could vent the alienation and claustrophobia they felt in the small rural area they grew up in. Through their shared love of alternative rock, they played their way to another place. Towards a bigger world.

This resulted, despite the youthful fertile ground, in two EP releases, of which the track ‘Eat Me’ was selected as ‘Canon of the Week’ in DR’s Karrierekanonen in 2016. Several concerts in Copenhagen, including Rust, KB18 and Ungdomshuset, gave the three boys a sense of the potential of their music and interaction.
Since then, together and separately, they have experimented with side projects and music projects across everything from electronica, hyper-pop to singer-songwriter. Experiences they have taken with them into the 2025 version of Gaslight, which, like the three friends themselves, has matured in sound, expression and ambition. A more hybrid approach that can be experienced on their upcoming self-produced album, “New Highlights”.

With the recent release of the single ‘No Apologies’, the band heralds a promising era for alternative rock in Denmark, and gives associations to the sound around The Windmill in Brixton, England. However, Gaslight is and will remain, first and foremost, the flagship of a friendship of the heart with music under its wings.
