James and RYYZN take their fans on a gradual build of slick electronic beats and a memorable bassline. Bringing together romance and the dancefloor, 'Night Light' entices the listener to give in to their desires and "stay the night". Flirty and alluring, the single blends the memories of late summer parties and the casual debauchery that accompanies them.

James tells us a little about the importance of the single and collaboration, "Night Light is about trying to put on a brave face to the world when things aren't going well. One of the hardest things is to be vulnerable and ask for help, and sometimes when you don't want to talk about it, you just want to be around the person that makes you feel like it's okay to feel this way. As the first single off our upcoming collaborative EP, the lyric video for Night Light really captures how RYYZN and I basically became family over the past year as we worked on these songs. After everything we've been through together, the RYYZN guys and I will always be there to support each other and we have this music to thank for that."
