The Altons are back with the gorgeous “Your Light“, a dreamy, earnest declaration of love marked by heavenly unison verses and a compelling call-and-response chorus. To accompany the studio version, the band shares a live performance of “Your Light”, recorded at at the Penrose Record Room.
“This is the last song we recorded for the album and we only had until the end of the day if it would make the record,” says Flores. “We tend to work well under pressure and this song resulted from that. Heartbreak and loss fueled the lyrics and from those experiences, we got a beautiful tune.”
Ponce adds, “This is one of my favorite songs because it was the culmination of all the things we had learned while making this album. Like Adriana mentioned, this is the last song we recorded and at the time it felt like we needed one more to really complete it. So after our recording sessions, we would hang back at the studio late at night to work out what would become ‘Your Light’.”
“Your Light” follows the romantic bolero “Del Cielo te Cuido” which translates to “I’ll take care of you from heaven”, vulnerable Heartache in Room 14 opener “Waiting”, the soulful “Float,” the sensual “Tangled Up In You,” and the slow-burn anthem “Over and Over.”
