AOR/Melodic rockers Streetlight unveil today their new single and official video, “Runaway Skies”, the second extract from the upcoming new studio album, “Shadows In Motion”, set for release on January 22, 2027, via Frontiers Music Srl.
Vocalist Johannes Häger commented: “Runaway Skies” was one of the first songs written for our upcoming album “Shadows In Motion”. Built on a driving guitar riff, the mood is melancholic yet positive. Every one of our records has featured a song with a California theme, and “Runaway Skies” continues in that spirit. It captures the imagery of driving from the ocean breezes of Malibu to the streetlights of a darkening Hollywood.”

With “Shadows In Motion”, Streetlight deliver the strongest statement of their career to date, building upon the acclaimed foundation established by their first two albums while taking their songwriting, musicianship and emotional depth to an entirely new level.
The band stated: “It has been an incredible privilege for us to have built such a dedicated following in the short time we’ve been around, which makes it more exciting to finally unveil our third album, “Shadows In Motion”. Just like our two previous records, the entire album was recorded and produced in our singer Johannes Häger’s music studio, Loud Noise Studios. Long days and late nights were spent working on every detail, from the perfect snare sound to layered vocal harmonies”.
“It’s been a lot of hard work, but above all, a lot of fun. Our hope is that “Shadows In Motion” will resonate with listeners in the same way our previous albums have”, they added. “Just like shadows move with the pull of gravity, we have no intention of slowing down. We are pushing ahead, with soaring six-strings and powerful choruses. “Shadows In motion” is the next step forward.”
Rich in soaring melodies, unforgettable hooks and the timeless elegance that has made the band a favorite among AOR and melodic rock fans worldwide, “Shadows In Motion” is both a natural continuation of Streetlight’s artistic journey and a bold step forward. Combining impeccable musicianship with heartfelt performances and world-class production, the album captures everything that has earned the band such widespread critical acclaim while further refining their unique identity.
From anthemic rockers to deeply evocative melodic moments, the album showcases a band operating at the peak of its creative powers. Confident, mature and utterly captivating, this is the sound of Streetlight fulfilling the promise that fans and critics alike recognized from the very beginning.
For lovers of classic AOR, melodic rock and timeless songwriting, “Shadows In Motion” is destined to become one of the defining releases of the year.
