Rhythm 'N' Moves is the second studio album by the American Christian pop rock band Capital Lights. It was released on July 17, 2012 under Tooth & Nail Records.
The album was a product of Capital Lights returning from disbandment in late 2010.
On December 24, 2010, during an interview with RadioU's morning show The R!OT for their Christmas Eve session, lead singer Bryson Phillips announced on the behalf of the band that they had agreed with Tooth & Nail CEO Brandon Ebel to return and record a second album for the label.
On February 8, 2012, the band announced on their Facebook page that they were finished with initial recording and would be releasing the album soon. On March 12, Capital Lights announced that the name of the album was officially going to be Rhythm N’ Moves.
On May 17, the band announced the album artwork for the release was official, as well as highlighted the first early review of the album from Indie Vision Music a few days later. On June 7, though the album was originally supposed to be released on July 19, the release date was changed to two days earlier for July 17.
On July 5, lead singer Bryson Phillps posted an official blog updating and recapping everyone on an overview of Capital Lights' origins, as well as their recent journey to the new release.
On June 29, Rhythm N’ Moves was officially released for pre-order on Tooth & Nail's official site. This was followed on July 3 with a pre-order option added on iTunes as well.Rhythm N’ Moves was debuted on July 17, 2015 as scheduled.
When addressing the slight change in genre for the record, lead singer Bryson Phillips stated: "We're still power pop, but there’s less power and more pop on this project... There's not as much rock this round as the first album and it's more laid back, but we've also expanded with more styles. We're still the same band, but we put the focus on melodies without trying to be overly technical." He went on to further say: "There’s much more to this album than strictly rock, and in the case of ‘Say Hey!’ there’s even a hip-hop feel...We just decided ‘why not?’ and went all out. Some songs have sampled drums and a few songs hardly have any guitars at all. We didn't try to limit ourselves by trying to reach a specific audience, but branch out to those that might not have listened to us before."
The release received positive to average praise from most professional music sites and reviews.
