Alt-rock from Chicago
What we sound like
Heavy guitars, big melodies and a groove you feel in your chest, with two voices trading off on top. Modern alt-rock with a grunge-revival edge, written to be played loud and felt live. Northern Lights is five people: Amin (lead vocals), Kamila (guitar), Martyna (keys and vocals), Adam (drums) and Jared (bass).
