Alternative pop band HAUNTER has just released their new single “Illuminate!” Right off the bat, the lyrics of this song set the tone.
It’s a love song, but the music behind it doesn’t have that "bubblegum-pop" sound that most love songs do. With electronic pop influences, Lucy LeNoir's powerful vocals, and well-written lyrics, this is a fun, unique take on the typical love song structure.
Two-time Grammy nominee Tyler Smyth worked on the song as the producer, mixer, and masterer as well as one of the co-writers. Smyth is best known for his work with LIGHTS and Falling in Reverse.
The moment you realize how strong your feelings for someone are, how head over heels you are in a relationship, is what this song captures. It’s those moments that make you think about just how deeply in love you are.
With a song that is very reminiscent of 2010s We Are The In Crowd and early Demi Lovato, HAUNTER’s sound is very different from most of what’s on the market right now. If you love a good pop-punk love song, you'll love this track!
“Illuminate” follows other HAUNTER songs such as “Love You Better” and “Miss Me” that were released last year. "Illuminate" is their first song of 2021, and can be streamed anywhere you listen to music!
