The Lights Out

About Me


The Lights Out - the tallest band in Portland.
We have fun, drink beer, don't play shows for a long time, share our rehearsal space with another band, read Playboys there, are learning how to harmonize, have two (!) band vans and a band truck and whatever Seth drives i'm not sure- oh wait, he has a van, too. We all work (jobs), we try to play simple music, we don't worry too much about missing practice, and we think you'll have fun at our shows.
Some of our songs are featured in this movie: http://www.motoventurefilms.com/
We feel, humbly, like we've made it to the big time now that you can purchase our music on iTunes.
Check Out our lo-fi debut CD! "Let There be The Lights Out"
