Visit www.TheLightyears.com for a complete profile of the band along with more photos, music and videos.
We are The Lightyears and we trade in Glorious Technicolour Power-Pop. We come from London, England, but our music has reached foreign shores all across the world from South Korea and Thailand to mainland Europe, South Africa and USA.
We've sung to millions of people on American radio, soundtracked national TV, rocked stadiums, won an INDY Award, played Glastonbury Festival and recorded with Hugh Padgham.
Our philosophy is simple - write honest words, sing big tunes and play every gig as if it’s our last.
When the world is sleeping, we'll be singing...
