OWUM : One Way Urban Media here with..

Lights: LIGHTS!

OWUM: What do you do in the band?

Lights: Well my first name is Lights, and I play keyboards, and I sing in the band.

OWUM: Where are you from?

Lights : I currently live in Toronto Canada but I consider myself Canadian but I have been moving a lot

OWUM: Growing up, who did you listen to? And who are you musical influences?

Lights: Growing up I listened to a lot of what my dad listened to like Phil Collins and The Beatles and I still do listen to those bands now

OWUM: You Just released your new album The Listening, how are people reacting?

Lights: It seems to be pretty good! I didn’t know what to expect. I created this album that I am so proud of, and I had no expectations of how it would be. I come here and people are ipinapakita up at the shows so I must be making some kind of impact and it is really cool to see people pag-awit back

OWUM: So far what has been the most memorable tour experience?

Lights: There has definitely been a few! I remember this one time we had to kanselahin a ipakita in Denver Colorado for a snowstorm that was very untimely in the middle of October and all the highways were closed and everything. We went on this long detour that was SO dangerous and scary and we were all stressed out. We got to this small town called Fort Collins, kind of in the middle of nowhere, so I thought I needed a reminder of the araw so I went in and got a tattoo and it was just a really cool experience.

OWUM: Where is the best place to perform other than your hometown?

Lights: I enjoy playing in a lot of different places. I really like Texas, anywhere in Texas is usually really fun! I pag-ibig Seattle , Portland, all up the west coast, and L.A is really fun. I pag-ibig Chicago, Chicago is so fun to play in, and I am excited to play here tonight. It seems like a really cool vibe and I have never played here before

OWUM: Who do you think is the most underrated band out there?

Lights: Underrated band, that’s a good question. For some reason I feel like M83 because in my opinion they have some really good pop songs. There is a lot of talent out there that does go relatively under-looked or in this case over-looked. I think for the most part if you are something that is meant to be out there, you will be out there and something that is meant to be a little madami secret, then you are just meant to be secretive. At this point I think that Phoenix, they have a lot of exposure now but, they have some great songs! They should be big as Kings of Leon.

OWUM: What is one thing you can not live without tour and one thing you miss the most when you are away?

Lights: On tour, I can’t do much without my laptop. It keeps me in communication with the world, it keeps me entertained, and I can write music and record music on it. I am pretty much useless without it! But I do miss sleeping in my own kama and that feeling of not having to be somewhere, you know? That is not the feeling you have when being on the road.

OWUM: If you could have a super power, what would it be and why?

Lights: I would pag-ibig to have, what I call, Hypersonic-Manipulation powers! So you can use audio to control people’s minds

OWUM: Subliminal messaging? Haha

Lights: Sorta you know? Because Wonder Women one of her foes was the Silver sisne and she emitted this really high power screech that could control people a little bit, but I would use them for good!

OWUM: That is the most original answer we have ever got. Everyone is always like “Oh you know Invisibility..”

Lights: AND FLYING!

OWUM: CLICHÉ!

OWUM: If you were to have theme song play every time you entered a room, what would it be and why?

Lights: Haha! I would pick the Spongebob theme song because it would just really fit

OWUM: What is your guilty pleasure song?

Lights: All the things she sinabi – T.A.T.U

OWUM: Who would be on your dream tour?

Lights: My dream tour at this point would be MuteMath. I think idealistically that would be a fun tour. But if you know, I were to dream big I would say lets go out with Abba, Phil Collins, and call it a tour!

OWUM: Every guy wants know, what do you look for in a boyfriend?

Lights: Hahaha! Definitely sharing the same interests as me! A guy that doesn’t think it’s stupid that I waste all my time on World of Warcraft, you know? Someone who can come over and hangout while I play it haha. Hmm…someone who does not take themselves seriously. And preferably someone who doesn’t write songs and sing because then we would be clashing of minds!
