The Killers Share Bombastic Single ‘Bright Lights’

As the band prepare for their Las Vegas residency...

The Killers return with new single ‘Bright Lights’.

The band are having an incredible year on the road, with their recent tour of the UK and Ireland culminating in a record-breaking six shows at London’s The O2 – more than 150,000 tickets were sold for the breathless run at the cavernous venue.

Of course, it all coincided with England’s Euro 2024 run – something The Killers managed to incorporate into their set, with headline-making results.

New single ‘Bright Lights’ comes as The Killers prepare to return to Las Vegas, hosting a special ‘Hot Fuss’ run at the Coliseum. Matching their bombastic impulses to Brandon Flowers’ Americana sketches, it fuses a gospel choir, rugged acoustic guitar, and stadium-worthy dynamics into a real hell-raiser of a single.

Tailor made for those epic live shows, it finds all four original band members – Brandon Flowers (vocals), Dave Keuning (guitar), Mark Stoermer (bass) and Ronnie Vannucci Jr (drums) – uniting as one.

The music video, directed by Micah Bickham, features the upcoming Las Vegas residency stage, and airs later today.

The Killers released their career-spanning compilation ‘Rebel Diamonds’ in December. In our review, CLASH wrote:

There’s something worthwhile about hearing the artists’ own curation – the dips and falls of the catalogue, as viewed from the inside. On music merit alone, ‘Rebel Diamonds’ is essential.
