new album

New album underway

8 April 2008

Over the past fortnight, the LYs have been beavering away in the studio recording a new album, due for release later this year.

Following their collaboration with the state-of-the-art Voyager School in Peterborough, The Lightyears have been lucky enough to gain access to The Voyager Recording Studio in order to record a full-length album for release later this year. Shelve all your pre-conceptions of school studios – this place is fully equipped and designed for professional usage, on top of its function as a teaching resource.  

This has allowed the band the freedom to experiment extensively and work closely on getting the right studio sound whilst retaining a flavour of the energy of Lightyears live shows. The album will contain a mix of new, unheard tracks and familiar LYs tunes.

Catch up on the news in Chris’ studio tour blog. Studio photos coming soon to the Lightyears Gallery.
