A four piece rock band from Troy N.Y. USA. Formed by Ralph Renna of Last call and Politics of contraband, both bands made their mark in the Upstate NY metal and hardcore scene in the 1990's , 2000 - present. Joined by members of Thrust, Flat Broke and Ton of bricks in February 2014, Let go daylight quickly shaped as a band, but in a more aggressive rock style. Drummer Rocky Morey with his thunderous sound joined in October 2013 . Mike Shudt on bass, Renna on guitar and vocals, became the gears to this well oiled machine! In January of 2014 lead guitarist David White joined and who fell into groove right away, giving the band the final touch it needed and took the band into new directions. In spring of 2014 let go daylight hit the studio with producer Arthur Scott Verner at DMS Studio Clarksville NY. Let go daylight walked into the studio with a vision for the tone of the record, but came out exceeding their expectations with the brilliance and knowledge of producer Verner. Renna states "I have been writing these songs for the past 3 years, some parts and ideas from over 15 years ago" and adds "in 2011 I started jamming with Sean Cranston and Matt Malone, now of the progressive rock band (The Further Unsound), and 3 of the songs on the CD were written then. I realized this sound had potential and I could do things musically now, stepping out of my comfort zone. But it wasn't until I called on old friends, who believed in my vision and sound, that's what made it work" Let go daylight simply means to lose grip with reality, but being able to admit and recognize to overcome and move on. The title "Traditions Carved By Wounded Hands" is about life itself. "We are raised and taught the ways of the world, knowledge is handed down, and you hope for the best as you become an adult" says Renna and adds "It's what we choose to believe, or act and live our life the way we want to no matter what. No one is to blame, the finger is not being pointed. This Record had to be made, its real about another chapter of our lives. This is what makes it believable. As for the Monster rock sound of the band Renna describes as this. "I have lived through , remember and was part of music from the 70's, 80's, 90's, and 2000's. Rock-n-Roll, blues metal, punk, hip hop, and so on. If we were to jump in a time machine, go back to the 1970's and start a band. While retaining the musical knowledge of the future it would sound like let go daylight!
