Collection: Lightheaded

Carrying on the long tradition of sentimental jangle pop songwriters, Lightheaded distill decades of lovelorn tunes into sounds for modern softies. They have the sunshine sparkle of The Left Banke and Margo Guryan, the C86 charm of Dolly Mixture and Would-Be-Goods, and the cinematic swell of Belle & Sebastian and Camera Obscura. Formed on the Jersey Shore in 2017 by Cynthia Rittenbach and Stephen Stec, Lightheaded took time to hone their sound with a rotating crew of drummers, guitarists and backup vocalists. 

"Lightheaded's bright and breezy brand of indie pop captures all the things that make the genre such an enduring delight. The band's records combine innocence and experience, balance melancholy and sweetness, draw from a set of influences ranging from the noise pop of C86 to the Baroque sounds of the mid-'60s, and ultimately come across like a warm hug from a friend when one is really needed."
