Distant Light is the third studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Alex Lloyd. Released in September 2003, it has been certified platinum in Australia and had three top 40 singles taken from it.
On the Chaos Music website, Lloyd states that the album is based on homesickness after a long stretch on the road promoting his second album Watching Angels Mend. "That was the headspace of where I was at the time. We went to a lot of strange places, maybe places I don’t want to revisit. It was a pretty lonely time. I think I’d reached a point where I’d just travelled too much."
Distant Light features Jim Moginie and Martin Rotsey of Midnight Oil on several tracks. It was produced by Stuart Miller, who had also produced Watching Angels Mend and mixed by Tony Hoffer who has worked with Air, Beck and Turin Brakes.
The album, with its first single winning Lloyd an ARIA for 'Best Male Artist' in 2003, was also nominated in two categories at the ARIAs in 2004: 'Engineer of the Year' and again, 'Best Male Artist'. The album has been certified platinum in Australia.
