   About Hotel Lights
"Somber, pretty, and entrancing.Three stars" -Paste

"like the view outside the window on the album's cover, these songs capture the possibility that something beautiful might be waiting just beyond the loneliness." -PopMatters

"Jessee displays a knack for writing mellow and heartfelt songs that make the most of a catchy melody. Four stars" -All Music Guide

"capturing the giant magnitude of tiny moments. Shine on you crazy diamond in the rough." -Magnet

Small town waitresses, naked palm readers, walking home in the cold, pay phones and trains.
Hotel Lights, from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, plays melancholy and beautiful songs about small, human scenes-- spot lit moments enclosed and illuminated. Isn't it rare that a band seems so aptly named?

self-titled debut album out now on Bar/None Records!

Six song ep "goodnightgoodmorning" is available through our website and on itunes.

Hotel Lights album is now on itunes music store! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Thank you for making truly beautiful music. If sunrises, sunsets, rainy days, and cold nights had sountracks they would feature Hotel Lights. If it's not too far out of your way, a concert in Austin, TX would be greatly appreciated.

Any chance you can make Amelia Bright temporarily available for download prior to the release of the new CD? I love the Hotel Lights version even more than the live version Ben Folds Five did and I would love to get the MP3 and take the song with me.

I'll be at your NYC release show and will be buying the CD so don't worry, i'm not looking to get free music, just future purchases a little ahead of time ;-)

Keep up the amazing work Darren, thank god your fantastic talents aren't going to waste.

We are set to release our debut single at the end of the summer on Kirsten's Postcard.




It was recorded with Maurice at his Garage Ermetico in the last 4 months, best known for his work with frammenti, northpole, the zen circus, the huge, fine before you came, dead elephant, disco drive, perturbazione and farmer sea. The E.P., a four track release, will be free downloadable on the web in the fall of september.

So now that the album's a month away.... can I preorder it somewhere? Bar/None's site is uh, pretty useless........... (I didn't say that)

and also; glad to see Norina have a second life as well. :D You're full of surprises Mr. Jessee.

I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.


Have a stellar weekend
