Deep Trees flip the switch on indie-pop single "Turn Out the Light"


Deep Trees, an artist from Western Massachusetts, gives us a shot of pure, kinetic indie pop with "Turn Out the Light." It feels like stepping into a room where every color is brighter and every movement has a bounce. The music is full of energy, humor, and warmth.

The song has a ska-like rhythm that keeps it moving with a bouncy groove. Nik Hughes plays the drums, which keep the song moving and crisp. The drums give the song a forward motion that makes it feel like it was made for dancing. Luca Giachi's bass holds everything in place under and around that pulse, keeping the song grounded while still letting it dance.

But the brass really gives it life. Victor Mejia's stacked horn arrangements, which include trumpet, baritone sax, and trombone, stood out in the mix with their personality and style. They don't just add to the song, they make it happen, making each part feel like a mini-party. Christopher Weeks' doo-wop backing vocals add a playful, retro-leaning charm to the song and make it even more fun without going too far into memories.

"Turn Out the Light" lyrics are simple and mood-driven, not over-the-top. They support the feeling of freedom and carefree movement that the music suggests. It's more about letting go than overthinking, and it matches the song's upbeat spirit beat for beat. Anthony "Rocky" Gallo's mix brings everything together, making it clear and powerful while keeping the track's quirky, genre-crossing heart. The end result is a polished but fun single that feels spontaneous, colorful, and unapologetically feel-good. It reminds us that sometimes the best way to make things better is to let them go.
