Hi, we're LightsGoBlue and we play Electronic Pop music
All our current tracks are recorded and produced ourselves in a makeshift garage studio. We fucking love it. This year we've been lucky enough to tour both the U.K. and Ireland with bands with some amazing bands, including Enter Shikari, and more recently Hadouken!.
If you like what you see/hear, there are free downloadable tracks and merchandise for sale over at www.musicglue.com/lightsgoblue so help yourselves!
Feast your eyes on these short videos from tour. You can find more over at YouTube by searching LightsGoBlue.

So... you've probably noticed the hench increase of shows this week? We've just managed to land two awesome upcoming tours, we're mega hyped about it! The first one is with new friends Hadouken! which starts at the end of this month, and another tour with the awesome Canterbury in November. Check the dates, and hopefully we'll catch some of you at the shows!
Also we've just ordered a new batch of brand new tshirts which will be available at shows from the 22nd September and available online shortly after for those who can't make it to these amazing shows!

15.06.09 - ENTER SHIKARI TOUR, REMIX + VIDEO
It's been a very busy month for us! Roughly a month ago now we set off on tour with the amazing Enter Shikari and had literally the best week of our lives, and made some awesome new friends. To catch up on all the happenings, make sure you check out the hench tour blog over there in the 'Blogs' section. So after a couple of weeks of hanging out, we were asked by the Shikari lads to remix their next single 'No Sleep Tonight' when we got home. We boshed it out in a couple of days, sent it over and thankfully everyone was really pleased with it! So much so, that they've decided to put the remix up as a B-side on the physical CD single. Exciting! So make sure you all go out and buy the single once it's out!
The other news is that the other day we ventured up to London to be a part of the video for 'No Sleep Tonight'. It was a really amazing day... we had a lot of fun jumping around, crowd surfing, (consuming alcohol... shh) and meeting new folk. You can catch the video up on the Enter Shikari myspace... and 'The Making Of...' on [www.nme.com].
Brilliant! Raj xx
18.05.09 - NEW FREE DOWNLOAD + TSHIRTS
Attention all LGB regulars and newcomers! You may or may not be aware that this morning our latest track 'Russian Blue Lagoon' went up on the myspace music player... aaaaand we've decided to dish it out once again for FREE on the Music Glue page! So if you would like the track, we ask you to please not rip it from myspace and to take 20 seconds out of your day and click the photo at the top of this page which will take you to another website where you can download both tracks in high quality for absolutely nothing!
Also, our Tshirts arrived! We love 'em... and apparently you guys do too! We've sold a quarter of our first batch in two shows, which we're very happy about. Thanks so much to everyone that's bought a Tshirt or CD from us on tour this week. We're having such a good time playing for you guys, and photos and blogs will be going up as soon as we get home to share the experience with all of you.
Hope you're all enjoying the new song, and Tshirts will be available to order online from next week onwards. See you at the shows! Raj x
05.05.09 - NEW TRACKS AND GREAT ESCAPE SHOW
Lately we've been busy playing loads of shows and writing new tracks so we haven't had time to update the myspace as much as usual! But here's what's been happening since the last time we put something up...!
We've been confirmed another support slot with Enter Shikari at this years Great Escape festival in Brighton. We're mega excited about this as it's going to be one hell of a weekend, with an amazing show to finish it all off... fingers crossed the weather holds up! Hopefully we'll be seeing a lot of you there... pre-ordered tickets are now sold out, but there are a number of tickets left on the door we've been told... so make sure you get there early and catch one!
On the day after the Great Escape festival we'll be releasing another new track for you all to download for FREE, yet again! We're all about giving stuff away... if we can afford to that is! So on the 17th May the new track will be up on the myspace, and it will be up on our Music Glue site, along with the last one.
Lastly, we've finally managed to get some new merch sorted... hopefully in time for the Shikari show, so make sure you bring a few extra pennies with you...! If unfortunately you can't make the show, don't worry... we will also be selling them online, through Music Glue. Keep the messages and comments coming, and if you hear of any shows needing bands throughout the summer... please get in touch!
Nice One, Raj x
01.03.09 - ENTER SHIKARI SHOW...AND FREE DOWNLOAD
First off, to all you new-comers, please head over to www.musicglue.com/lightsgoblue and download our newest FREE track 'Kiss This, Kiss That'. We both really appreciate the support everyone's given us so far, it really means the world, keep it up!
So the Shikari show was incredible, it was really such a a pleasure to play. We got there ridiculously early, so there was a lot of waiting around, (which was probably best as Raj was nursing a severe hangover!) but it was definately worth it! We even got to watch a fairly decent game of basketball... but didn't bring trunks so couldn't take advantage of the amazing pool. Gutted!
You guys were unbelievable though... especially those in the dance pit, so thankyou to each and every one of you that enjoyed it, you honestly made our night =] ...and to the person in the front row with the cast, sorry we couldnt sign it! We were rushed off really quickly so Canterbury could start! A short video of our day the show will be up on here very soon... we managed to get quite a bit of footage, including a couple of our songs live... so maybe you guys can see yourselves in the clips!
One last thing... take it easy y'all, Alex xox
17.02.09 - FIRST PRACTICE BACK...
This year we've needed to spend most of our time writing and recording the new material, so we were forced to cancel some shows and didn't manage to get much practice in... until today! We rehearsed hard for a good few hours this afternoon, trying to nail the new songs live... difficult! But they're sounding more pumping than anything we had expected or anything we've played before, just need to get back on the stage and play it to you guys!
Speaking of which... we've just added a few more shows to the gig-list. Check it out, see if we're anywhere near you, make sure you jot it down in your diary and come hang out. We've also been asked to play a few festivals this year, which will be announced soon. Seriously can't wait for the summer... I've definately had enough of this winter shit. Blah.
Take it easy y'all, Raj x
03.02.09 - NEW TRACK UP!
Alright folks, I'm sure you're happy to hear the first of our new tracks, "Kiss This, Kiss That" is now up on the player....finally! Some of you may have heard it at the live shows a while ago, but we've re-vamped and sorted it out. Let us know what you think, we're dying to know your opinions, so don't be shy.
Also, you may have noticed a new flashy banner at the top of the page... click that li'l beaut and you'll be taken to the LightsGoBlue MusicGlue website, where you can download the track for free! You heard right... zero bones! We made you wait this long, we're not about to charge you for it! =]
So have a listen, if you like it... DOWNLOAD IT! And then come tell us about it. done, and done. Raj and Alex x
28.01.09
Great news... after a long time spent writing songs... scrapping songs, writing better songs, lazing about, improving the better songs and recording them... we're finally finished! We've literally just completed recording the final track, which will be released along with the others very soon! Sorry about the wait =]
This month onwards we'll be starting to book up shows again, so if anyone can help us out with any shows/anywhere, please get in touch!!
We're going to try our best to keep the page up-to-date from now on, so expect to see a whole bunch of new videos, blogs, photos etc. For the moment, we've put up some older tracks to keep you going for a while, enjoy them while you can!
