Brightness is the moniker of Alex Knight, an indie-pop producer and window cleaner hailing from Lake Macquarie in New South Wales. He owns a newly registered 2001 Commodore Lumina with a substantial dent in the driver side fender – so you know, he’s probably a legend.

Recorded and mixed by Knight and Alex Crosby, ‘Oblivion’ was released last month via Mirror Music Group. It’s a blissful, meandering tune with guitar lines that you’ll be humming for days to come. Already lining up a handful of shows, you can catch Brightness supporting Middle Kids at Hudson Ballroom (details below), then heading on tour with Jack River and Seavera for the entire month of December.
