Music from Lights & Motion have been used in many filmtrailers, commercials and TV-shows, ranging from The Oscars to the Super Bowl. in 2015, Apple featured the bands music in their global iTunes Campaign, "Latest Films. Anywhere, Anytime."
In December 2013, Lights & Motion was voted as "The Best New Artist" in the annual polls by Post-rock on Facebook, the world's largest post-rock community.
