Ultra Lights is a punchy four piece indie-rock band out of Atlanta bringing fresh pop and garage songwriting grit. Spearheaded by seasoned singer-songwriter John Robinson, the band’s tightly written anthems take influence from 90’s garage and early aughts indie sounds, with a bit of a swaggering lean into some of Australia’s best trash rock.
Ultra Lights’ 2025 self-titled EP was given high praise by Stereogum, and the band has since opened up for indie-rock greats like The Hold Steady and Les Savy Fav. This summer they are releasing their debut full length titled ‘Pleasure’s All Yours’ through Chunklet Industries and are planning to tour in the fall. Recorded, mixed and co-produced by Kris Sampson (Omni’s ‘Souvenir’, Balkans) and mastered by Mikey Young (Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Total Control) ‘Pleasure’s All Yours’ is a nod to the working artist schlub and the relentless work of finding meaning in a world that keeps telling us to look the other way. A fully formed, all killer no filler debut that gives head bobbers no choice but to get up, move around, and ultimately sing in unison to our communal plight all the way until the end. Then, do it all over again.
