Artist:Lord Huron
Song:The Night We Met
Album:Strange Trails
Ben Schneider started Lord Huron as a solo project. After he turned it into a band, they had success when The Night We Met appeared on the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why. The song has been streamed over 500M times. Schneider is from Lansing, MI. As a child, he spent summers with his family near Lake Huron. That's where the band name comes from. He moved to Los Angeles in 2005 and after releasing a couple of EPs, Lord Huron signed with the indie label Iamsound. And that's when he turned it into a band The Night We Met is from the 2015 album Strange Trails. Several Lord Huron songs were placed on TV shows. But nothing clicked until The Night We Met appeared on season 2 episode 5 of the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why. The song was certified 3XPlatinum. I can't say why the song caught on but it got Lord Huron a deal with Republic Records for the 2018 album Vide Noir. A version of The Night We Met featuring Phoebe Bridgers appears on the season 2 soundtrack CD of 13 Reasons Why. Lord Huron has probably been more successful than Ben Schneider could have anticipated. This is why record companies place songs on TV. Who knows when a song will catch on and blow up. Here's the video of The Night We Met by Lord Huron. The video footage is from 13 Reasons Why.
