Lights Action were a British rock quintet from London/Oxford/Chelmsford made up of Patrick Currier (vocals), Karl Bareham (guitar), Chris Moorhead (guitar/keyboards), Alex Leeder (bass) and Steven Durham (drums). The band broke up in 2011.

Initial releases

Their first single, "Satellites", was released on 7 May 2007. The single was re-released as a limited edition double A-Side single at the end of April 2008, backed with the song "Us Against the World". Their second single, "Story Of A Broken Boy", was released on 1 October 2007. Lights Action's third single, "Aurora" was released on 7 April 2008.

Their début mini-album All Eyes to the Morning Sun, was released in April through Xtra Mile Recordings.

Debut album

Their début album Welcome to the New Cold World was released on 2 March 2009 through the band's own, "Colt Signals" label. Unlike the preceding synth-driven mini-album, the album used instruments such as piano, lap steel, hammond organ, pipe organ, mellotron and a live string quartet. Reviews compared their epic style to that of Arcade Fire, Coldplay and U2.[1][2][3][4][5]

The first album single to be released was "Battle of Lovers", which was given away as a free download through the band's website.[6]

The final song on the album, "The Bottom of the Sea" featured a choir including Dallas Green (Alexisonfire/City and Colour), Kenny Bridges (Moneen), singer/songwriter Richard Walters and Oxford based band, A Silent Film.
