After revealing news of upcoming project Skin and Earth, Lights has an apocalyptic treasure that will release throughout the year. This marks her fourth album along with a comic series to accompany its musical component. From the conception of her career, Lights has always incorporated fan involvement and visual elements to her tunes. As Skin and Earth makes its way out in the world this fall, Lights invites you on an electronic scavenger hunt to seek out clues, clips, and more.

Joining Worlds - Music Meets Comics:

The power of music has the ability to take us out of the darkest moments and take us into a world like no other. Skin and Earth might be onto something more. Lights constructs herself as the main character, Enaia Jin, a student at Tempest University. In this world of chaos and despair, Jin is on a mission to find something deeper than shiny distractions and the appealing sickness that plagues surrounding minds.

"I feel my whole life has lead up to a project like this. It's a complete convergence of everything I love - music, comics, post-apocalyptic romance, crystals, wine and powerful ladies, all perfectly entwined. It'll be by far my most care-free and fierce album yet. I think now, more than ever, people need a reason to listen to a whole record, and this is mine," said Lights.

Lights is no stranger to the comic field. In her earlier works, Lights coined herself as Captain Lights in a short motion comic series, Audio Quest. This project was a collaboration with a DC Comic artist and was paired with her first album, The Listening. In Audio Quest, Lights travels from her home, The Purple Planet,and scans the universe on a mission to harvest the sounds of the universe.

In one of Audio Quests issues, she travels to Planet ISIS to fight evil and restore the harmonious sounds of the universe.

Similar to Captain Lights, Enaia Jin is on a mission to fight with the power of hope. Skin and Earth combines the strengths of music and the art of comic to embody her vision.
