“Break in the Light” is an introspective, cinematic rock track with a sunlit feel that balances humility with optimism, reflecting on whether we are leaving a better world for our future.

Songwriter Drew Lawrence, known for co-writing the 6x platinum hit "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri, explains, “'Break in the Light' addresses the question of whether or not we’re leaving things better off than we found them for the next generation.”
Drawing from inspirations like Wilco, Tom Petty, and The War on Drugs, this song feels both timeless and refreshingly alive.

seeTrees was formed in 2024 when hit songwriter, Drew Lawrence, formerly of the Americana band The Dales, connected with Los Angeles-based drummer and producer, Luke Adams. Drawing inspiration from artists like Tom Petty, The War on Drugs, and Wilco, the project has a throwback feeling with a modern sense of renewal.
The debut album, Greater Than the Past, produced by Adams, was released in December 2025. It is a journey through textures of analogue synthesizers, pulsing rhythm tracks, and ethereal guitars. This common thread unites the influences of indie rock, Americana, and folk.
The band played 50 West Coast shows in 2025, from San Diego to Seattle, sometimes opening for bigger acts like The White Buffalo. The band's first single from its sophomore album, "Relivin' It," was released this past February and will be followed by 4 more singles and a full summer west coast tour schedule.

“Lights Out In The City” is an anthemic, high-spirited arena-rock track co-written by Drew Lawrence, known for co-writing the 6x platinum hit "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri.
“Lights Out in the City navigates the current extremes and hypocrisies in our political climate while pleading for decency and a return to being a beacon of civility and freedom for the world,” Lawrence explains.
Written by Drew Lawrence and produced by Luke Adams (Jacob Dylan, Pete Yorn), the song insists on morality and decorum amid a polarizing, extreme political landscape. “Lights Out in the City” is available on all major streaming platforms now.
“Lights Out in the City” hits the ground running with a catchy, cinematic instrumental that captivates the audience with ethereal keys and a confident drum beat.
Lawrence’s nostalgic vocal quality draws in listeners as he sings, “It’s a delicate rage / Dangerously safe / Can’t even explain where we are.” He holds the audience’s hand through the fire as the track blooms in desperation for peace and understanding, begging listeners to find common ground with one another.

The single has a heart of its own: it's anthemic and inspiring, casting a protective shield over the ray of sanguinity that continues to dim with each misstep.
“The USA is still one of the best experiments yet on this planet, and we need to be careful not to let that beacon of hope dim. Greed, false information, for-profit media, entitlement, and an utter disregard for precedent are all chipping away at our foundation.”
Despite everything, “Lights Out in the City” glimmers with perseverance and determination.
