The discography of Lights, a Canadian electropop singer-songwriter, consists of three studio albums, one compilation album, four extended plays, fourteen singles (including four as a featured performer) and fourteen music videos. Lights began her career as a songwriter, penning songs for the television program Instant Star.[1] She released a self-titled EP in 2008 on the independent record label Underground Operations. Two singles, "Drive My Soul" and "February Air", were released from the EP: "Drive My Soul" reached number 18 on the Canadian singles chart and was certified gold by Music Canada (MC).[2][3]

Lights' debut studio album, The Listening, was released in September 2009. It reached number seven on the Canadian albums chart and was certified gold by MC.[3][4] Three singles were released from the album: "Saviour", "Ice" and "Second Go". In early 2010, Lights collaborated with various Canadian musicians on the charity single "Wavin' Flag" which reached number one in Canada and was certified triple platinum by MC.[5][6]

Siberia, her second studio album, was released in October 2011. Featuring collaborations with Holy Fuck and Shad, it peaked at number three in Canada and was certified gold by MC.[3][4] The album produced four singles, "Everybody Breaks a Glass", "Toes", "Banner" and "Timing is Everything". A compilation album, Siberia Acoustic, followed in April 2013. Preceded by the single "Cactus in the Valley" with Owl City, the album reached number seven in Canada.[4]

Her third studio album, Little Machines, was released in September 2014, and debuted at number 5 in Canada. It has spawned two official singles, the top-40 peaking lead single "Up We Go" and "Running with the Boys", as well as two promotional singles "Portal" and "Same Sea".
