Posted by VMan on October 25, 2024
Denver-based artist Boogie Lights is forging his own path in the dance scene with his unique blend of disco, house, and soul-infused music.
With a reputation for feel-good live shows, Boogie Lights combines DJing with raw, energetic drumming and a youthful, carefree spirit – resulting in unforgettable live music experiences that have resonated with audiences nationwide. Originally hailing from Rochester, NY, Boogie Lights began his musical journey in college, drumming for funk band Soul Junction before moving to Denver to pursue his solo career in 2017. After quickly making his mark on the Denver music scene, he has sold out venues like Globe Hall; performed at iconic spots like Bluebird Theater, Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom, The Black Box, and Decadence NYE; supported artists like Fox Stevenson, The Sponges, SkiiTour, Night Drive, and The Orchestrator; and released music on Disco Down Records, Kokolores Records, and Super Spicy Records.
Following the celebrated release of his The Boogie Bunch EP in 2023, Boogie Lights is now revving up to release his debut LP DISCO DANCE THERAPY, set to release on Friday, December 6. Showcasing his genre-blending mastery, the upcoming album is a journey through Boogie Lights’ artistic identity that draws from house, disco, funk, bass, soul, and hip-hop. The album also reflects Boogie Lights’ core creative ethos, exploring the transformative power of music as an uplifting, healing force and encouraging listeners to dance their way through life’s challenges.
Today, Boogie Lights unveils the LP’s lead single, “RISE UP” – an empowering, genre-bending anthem that calls for unity and hope for a brighter future. This track was created in collaboration with members of The Boogie Bunch, including DZIRAE GOLD, Deezy Le Phunk, and Mocha Music. The Boogie Bunch, often featured in live performances, is a rotating ensemble of musicians that includes sax, guitar, keys, vocals, and more to deliver a funk-filled dose of ‘disco dance therapy.’ “RISE UP” inspires listeners to recognize their collective power for positive change to “unite the fight” and come together as one as encapsulated in the line, “No reason it’s not us, to be the reason we climb up.”
