BRITE LITE BRITE's debut album Universe Universe is available now and marks their move toward organic electronica and a preoccupation with life and our universe. Available on iTunes, cdbaby.com, and www.britelitebrite.com.
"BRITE LITE BRITE's "I Just Want U2 Myself" feels like a female fronted Daft Punk. Kind of like Lady Gaga as well. I LOVE the music in the song and it gives off that Daft Punk vibe. Lyrics are all about someone who is longing for another, and the visual lyrics convey the emotion very well. " -TAXI A&R Music Publishing
Brite Lite Brite's musical highlights include winning the GRAND PRIZE electronica category in the 2007 John Lennon Songwriting contest for "Sky Turns Red," as well as earning Semi-Finalist placement in the 2008 International Songwriting Competition for "Now that You're Around" and Finalist placement for "Stormy Weather" in the 2009 100% Music Songwriting Contest. Brite Lite Brite was selected by MTV to open for LOCKSLEY in the MTV Choose or Lose Tour in the Fall of 2008, selected by Platform One Entertainment as part of their Spring 2009 Campus Music Invasion program, and selected to perform August 2009 at Born to Play: LIVE Acoustic Performances in 700+ Gap Stores, the largest-ever simultaneous live acoustic music event, hosted by GAP.
Platform One Entertainment - Brite Lite Brite
Matthew Baker, Music Marketing Project Manager
"Platform One works with artists who are striving to promote their music independent of label limitations. Brite Lite Brite is one of these artists. The band, made up of singer/guitarist Andrea Stankevitch and guitarist/electronics master Luke Johnson, is one of the most talented acts I have had the pleasure of representing.
Brite Lite Brite brings a fresh feeling to the over-saturated market of electronic music. Johnson programs intricate beats, providing pulsating rhythms that serve as the backbone of the band’s song structure. Over these beats, droning guitar melodies are layered to give a spacious atmosphere in which Andrea’s vocals dance, tumble, whisper, and scream. If the beats are the backbone of the music, these haunting vocals are surely the heart.
Platform One worked with Brite Lite Brite as part of our Spring 2009 Campus Music Invasion (CMI). As part of this program, we enlisted over 100 representative volunteers from college campuses across the country to promote, distribute, and represent the music of the CMI artists. These reps hosted listening parties with friends, took the music to campus radio and press, handed out free digital downloads of the songs, and collected feedback for all the artists involved. Brite Lite Brite has used the feedback from the CMI program to shape the sound of their new recordings as they continue to grow in new musical directions.
Brite Lite Brite is a standout act from the Spring CMI, and they have the potential to reach a wide audience with their debut album, Universe Universe. The duo is whole-heartedly invested in the music they make, and you can hear this devotion in the songs. Brite Lite Brite is unlike any other that I have had the chance to work with, and I have high hopes that they will go far with their unique combination of electro-acoustic sounds. Take a moment to hear it for yourself at www.britelitebrite.com."
Brite Lite Brite was selected by Skopemag.com "Artists To Watch" Feature in Spring 2009 and selected by SPIN magazine as 1 of 8 undiscovered bands worth a listen, hand-picked by SPIN.com staffers from more than 500 submissions around the world.
"Twitchy, Scandinavian-sounding electro-pop imbued with urgent, even desperate, vocals." -SPIN Magazine
