Skylights release their brand new single ‘SKIES ARE BURNING’ before a landmark show and hiatus.

The band say the single marks the end of their ‘WHAT YOU ARE’ era and is being released prior to a landmark gig at the largest indoor venue in their home City of York, The Barbican, on Saturday 2nd November, after which they will be taking a planned hiatus.

Rob Scarisbrick: ‘The song is a feel-good euphoric anthem, that has been going down great with the crowd at our gigs. The lyrics are just me day dreaming on a hot summer’s day’.

‘Skies Are Burning’ is dreamy and nostalgic, fast paced with a great energy throughout. Another great track to add to their roster of songs.

The York Barbican gig is their biggest selling show to date and is all but sold out, with supporters travelling from around the UK to be there and join the celebration. To say it will be an emotional night for the band and their loyal, passionate followers is an understatement. Skylights have carved their very own niche in the UK independent underground music scene and have created a community around their music, which includes an eclectic array of sports and media celebs including the BBC’s Mike Bushell, Josh Warrington, Guy Mowbray, Gaetano Berardi, and Westlife’s Nicky Byrne to name but a few.
