Bright Light Bright Light – New York show and ticket giveaway!

Paper Trail favorite and all-around pop wonder Bright Light Bright Light is playing a show at the Cake Shop here in New York on January 23rd! And I have a pair of tickets to give away to one reader!

Find out how to enter at the end of this post, but for a bit more about the show: Bright Light Bright Light will be playing a solo piano set that will, in all likelihood, be amazing. I saw Rod in a similar set-up last year and while there’s no doubt that his full production stuff is brilliant, the stripped-down set was really special.

One of my favorite things about what Rod’s done with Bright Light Bright Light is that he manages to strike that perfect balance between thoughtful lyrics and pop melodies, and this is a great chance to hear the songs in a different light.

The show will features songs from his upcoming debut album Make Me Believe In Hope and will double as a launch for his new EP Blueprints 1. The EP has four tracks from the album in a quite beautiful solo piano rendition with guests vocals from people like Stefan of The Sound of Arrows, so if you like the show (or can’t make it but like this sort of thing) it’ll be available to purchase from the 23rd.

Blueprints 1 will include:
Blueprint [with Sunday Girl]
Debris [with Allison Pierce]
Cry At Films [with Del Marquis]
Disco Moment [with Stefan of Sound Of Arrows]

While he’s in New York, Bright Light Bright Light is also DJing on January 25th at Eastern Bloc.

For a chance to win a pair of tickets to Bright Light Bright Light’s show at the Cake Shop on January 23rd (doors are at 8:30pm) email me at amanda@papertrailmusic.com by January 15th with the subject line “BLBL Ticket Giveaway”. I’ll randomly choose and email a winner on the 16th. Best of luck!
