Dark Water is an eclectic musical gumbo comprised of Kristian Bush of Sugarland and Billy Pilgrim, Brandon Bush from Train, and Blackberry Smoke's Benji Shanks. Together, they’re on a mission to rule rhythm.

“She’s A Light” is the next step. Kristian calls the progressive rocker “one of the most exciting songs on the record.”

“From Brandon's plowing drumming to Benji's unhinged guitar solo, it rips a hole in the sonic universe from the first verse until it drops you off on another planet by the unexpected ending,” he continues. “I am also excited that I got to name-check Outkast.”

Lyrics include: She pulls the stop signs out just to hear the crashes of the marching band when they play Outkast songs | She weaves between the drummers, touches all the buttons and the sky opens up and then she’s home

“She’s A Light” is the second song released from Dark Water’s second studio album, One Step Ahead of the Robot.

Brandon describes Dark Water v. 2025 as "very derivative of the Talking Heads." The band’s guiding question is, "Is it rhythmically satisfying?"

The answer is unequivocally yes.

“I am so happy that the next Dark Water LP is ready to go, and fans can pre-save it starting now,” Kristian says. “Dark Water is the highlight of my album-making life right now, and sharing these songs with fans is my current favorite thing. I love hearing their reactions and excitement.”
