Light45 says that what sets them apart from others is their unique approach to songwriting. “We believe the song should tell us where to go. It’s not our responsibility to force a genre, but to help guide it.”
The band's news single. “Medic,” out now, is a guitar ladden rock track about the need for a Savior. The band says the meaning behind the single is, “The Medic” is a song about Jesus Christ as the one true Healer of our body, mind, and spirit. The song tells the story of a fictional character who is in the process of dying, realizing that it is happening, that he is a sinner and that he is in need of a Savior physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
