Биография

When Kyle Pfeiffer formed Blacklite District a decade ago, it was with the intent to create music that touched upon all of his influences and the music that raised him, simultaneously becoming his source of inspiration and therapy. His music turned from life enhancer to life saver. As Blacklite District returns with new music and a new lease on life, he maintains the same credo from the start of providing an authentic experience for every new and returning listener who presses play. Blacklite District began building a buzz, touring and even making waves on the Billboard charts with a Top 35 hit “With Me Now” in 2014. It was fast and it was furious, though it ignited a downward spiral in Kyle. “I drank a lot and was dabbling with drugs,” he remembers. He continued along this destructive path until 2015, when he was hospitalized for acute pancreatitis. “I was told if I had another drink, I would die,” he explains. He didn’t fully stop and added more opiates to the mix. He continued a hot streak of songs like “The Struggle” and “Living in a Nightmare” (Number 21 Billboard Mainstream Rock Indicator chart). In 2018, his song “Cold As Ice” went viral, with over 100 million streams and reaching Number 35 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Chart. This was at the same time that Kyle learned how to tap into the video game world, by creating visuals through Minecraft. The combination was genius and only further propelled Blacklite District into full-blown stardom.
