About
The Daylights are an alternative rock band
from Los Angeles. The trio is fronted by brothers Ran Jackson and Ricky
Jackson, with Svend Lerche on Drums. Best known for their song, "I Hope
This Gets To You" that was released in December 2010 as a virtual “love
letter” on YouTube, it was based on a concept they conceived with their
roommate for his long distance girlfriend. Within the first 72 hours,
the video was viewed over 1.5 million times & every major press
outlet had something to say about the phenomenon.
Their self titled album "The Daylights" was released September 14, 2010
on the band's own label, 87th Floor Records. The album spent 5 weeks on
the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. "Rogue Machine" and "I Hope This Gets
To You" both reached Top 50 at Hot AC radio, and The Daylights were the
only unsigned band in the Top 100. "I Hope This Gets To You" went to #4
on Sirius XM.
