New Hampshire four-piece Wild Light announce release of their debut album - Adult Nights - out March 3rd, 2009 on StarTime International. Recorded in Los Angeles with producer Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, Guided By Voices), the album features 13 original tracks co-written by all four members. The result is classic Americana pop that sweeps over you with distinct vocal harmonies complimented by warm and dynamic arrangements. The songs reflect the timeless American spirit, whether it be the fall foliage, changing of the seasons, or a summer day at the lake. Rooted in the New Hampshire motto of "Live Free Or Die," the album addresses an unknown but open future for Wild Light - a theme constant in the life of many today.
