The Bright Light Social Hour

Austin psych-rippers The Bright Light Social Hour have made a triumphant return with their delectable and electrifying new album, Emergency Leisure. Comprised of Jackie O'Brien (bass/vocals), Curtis Roush (guitar/vocals), Mia Carruthers (keys/vocals), Zac Catanzaro (drums), and Juan Alfredo Ríos (percussion), the band once again showcase their exceptional and infectious melodies, flooded with their distinctive propulsive rhythms and carnal energy.

The Bright Light Social Hour have established themselves as a relentless force in the tapestry of American psych-rock. With four prior studio albums, including the highly acclaimed Space Is Still the Place and Jude I & II, their sound defies conventions and continues to transmute. Their impressive portfolio includes composing original soundtracks for HBO, MTV, and Nintendo, and they even had the honor of writing and recording the award-winning theme for Amazon's Sneaky Pete at the request of Bryan Cranston. Their reputation for explosive live performances has led them to grace the stages of prestigious festivals like Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, and Electric Forest, sharing the spotlight with legendary acts such as Aerosmith, Spoon, Thee Oh Sees, and The Flaming Lips. The Bright Light Social Hour's innovative sound has garnered critical acclaim from esteemed publications like CLASH, NPR, The Wild Honey Pie, Earmilk, and many more.
