New York, NY (Top40 Charts) It's a family affair! Blues infused garage-rockers The Footlight District are set to both excite and delight with their newest single 'Lightning' which is set to be released 09/09/22. Filled with powerful riffs, effortless vocals, and impeccable harmonisation - 'Lightning' acts as the perfect introduction to the true essence of The Footlight Districts anthem-like discography.
This single comes as a collaboration with the incredible Russell Marsden of Band of Skulls, who's synergetic artistry adds involves his years of creative alt/rock experience and flare to the bands already electric collection. The band also teamed up with Enrico Berto from mushroom studios, who worked incredibly closely with them on the making of this killer single.
The talented
Chicago based siblings have already shown incredible movement within the music industry which has taken them through a plethora of exciting twists and turns. From their first two killer albums to their ear-catching latest singles such as 'Hush' and 'War Paint' - the bands ever-growing bond syncs up beautifully alongside their passion filled rock tradition.
Though all roads point towards stardom for The Footlight District, they have definitely faced their challenges. Having had their home destroyed by Hurricane Katrina back in 2005, the siblings ended up homeless for some time, during which they all learnt and bonded over their most profound realisation - the importance of togetherness.
With hardships like these bringing this family closer together, their understanding of connectivity and creative communication through music became paramount to their journey. Understanding that the relationships we have with one another is the most important thing of all, the band has set this motive as the driving force for both their creative direction and personal intention.
