Guitarist Craig Chambers and drummer PJ Rogalski grew up together in the college town of Pullman, Washington. As teenagers each played in local bands. Chambers most notably in the Exothermics and Rogalski in Thin Section, which featured one-time Treepeople and Stuntman guitarist John Polle. Bassist Jeff Albertson grew up 30 miles south in Lewiston, Idaho and played bass and sang in local bands Shamus and Glow. Pullman's notorious "White House" was the scene for many a basement punk show that brought all three together. In the mid 1990s all three moved to Boise, Idaho and started playing together in a noisy-rock trio called The Left Coast. When Chambers and Rogalski decided to move back to their home state to attend college in 1998 The Left Coast ended. In Seattle, Chambers, Rogalski and Albertson started a new band - The Lights. They've been described by local press as "quite simply, fucking amazing". The Lights have a sound you can't quickly describe... a mixture of Pornography era Cure, with a helping of Wire, The Wedding Present, with the dark humor of Pavement on top. Their astounding debut full-length "Beautiful Bird" (Boptart) was in everyone in the Northwest's top 10 of 2003. Childstar is pleased to release their new limited-edition EP and 7" "Wood and Wire". 1000 CDs, 500 7"s, hand screenprinted and numbered in custom die-cut packaging... and when they're gone, they're gone.
