COME AND SEE U.S STARS PRETTY LIGHTS AT UK/IRELAND GIGS

Pretty Lights Trilogy of EPs for 2010


Pretty Lights are already big in the game in the US, having
had over half a million downloads and sell out tours they
are also headlining a 10,000 capacity show in their homeland
this summer.

Pretty Lights are now confirmed to play…
• 26-Jun Glastonbury Pilton, England
• 30-Jun Sneaky Pete's Edinburgh, Scotland
• 2-Jul Wakestock Festival Gwynedd, Wales
• 3-Jul Wireless Festival London, England
• 4-Jul Wireless Festival London, England
• 5-Jul Tripod Dublin, Ireland

Now its time to show the UK what they are all about; June
15th and October 12th see Colorado-based producer Pretty
Lights, aka Derek Vincent Smith, set to release parts 2 and
3 of a trilogy of EPs. Drummer Cory Eberhard forms the
touring band.

In an effort to get his music directly to his fans as soon
as it’s written, Derek will record the EPs only a few
weeks before each release. It’s a pretty gutsy move to set
release dates without finished material, but for Derek,
who’s been recording albums and immediately releasing them
for free on the internet since 2006, setting deadlines like
this isn’t a big deal.

Pretty Lights’ last three albums, Taking Up Your Precious
Time, Filling Up The City Skies, and Passing By Behind Your
Eyes have been downloaded over 500,000 times from
www.PrettyLightsMusic.com – please visit the site for the
music. These tracks juxtapose beautiful vintage samples
against backdrops of futuristic synthesis and dirty broken
beats, creating a sound that can snap your neck while
simultaneously filling you with emotion. And as Pretty
Lights looks ahead to his next three projects, his music
could take him anywhere.

Since he started touring in 2008, Pretty Lights’ mix of
electric beats, vintage samples, and DJ Shadow-esque
throwbacks have earned a dedicated following across the
United States. With an ambitious live setup that includes
the addition of Cory Eberhard on drums and stunning visuals,

Are you guys seeing them at Glastonbury? They'll be in the
UK for a few shows. I've heard they're so good live.
