Sweet Lights is the solo project of Shai Halperin, formerly of the Capitol Years and the original lineup of the War on Drugs with Kurt Vile. The album blends retro-laced songcraft with expansive, reverberant arrangements, and is filled with supreme pop hooks and bittersweet emotions. Already receiving rave reviews in Europe, the album is finally available in North America.
