If I Could Meer Lights Poxleitner...

Lights Valarie Poxleitner Bokan is a Canadian electro-pop artist. She is an exceptionally talented singer, songwriter and instrumentalist. Lights is, in many ways, totally different from what you call a typical ‘celebrity’. She has this aura about and around her which is sort of divine and enlightening; starting with her name itself to her lyrics and style of music. Her first debut album was ‘The Listening’ released in 2008. Lights is married to Beau Bokan, the lead vocalist of the band called Blessthefall. They have a beautiful daughter together named Rocket Wild Bokan. If I could just have only one interview with any contemporary musician, it would be Lights! She’s one of my role models and she continues to be my source of infinite inspiration for the past 3 years.

Here are some of the questions which I would want to ask if I could meet Lights!

1. From ‘Lights’ in 2008 to ‘Little Machines’ in 2014, you have come such a long way in your career as well as your personal life. What has changed and how are you feeling about it? How have these changes made you stronger and wiser as a person?
2. Tell us about your upcoming ‘Midnight Machines’, especially the two new songs.
3. From what I’ve noticed from your songs, they have such a deeper sense of meaning and a way of relating to one’s life so directly. How do you come up with such lyrics, is there anything you do specially to prepare yourself before writing a song, like reading a spiritual book or so? Or are they taking forms from your own life experiences?
4. From 2006 till now your looks and style have undergone such a huge change and it is getting so much better too! What’s your style-inspiration? Who is your fashion icon, do you have one? Do you design your own clothes like you do with your album designs?
5. One of the things I envy about you is your beautiful collection of tattoos! Do your tattoos define the real you? How would you choose what to get before getting it?
6. Tell us about your daughter Rocket, how much do you love being a Mom plus artist?
7. You pull up your family life and career along so well, do you have any advice for the young artists out there who aspire to do the same?
