Hartlight was founded by Adrien Djouadou – composer, guitarist, bassist, and mixer – together with Noémie Marie, singer and lyricist. Their paths first crossed on the shores of Switzerland, and from this encounter arose the vision of a metal band that blends epic symphonic orchestrations, poetic lyrics, and powerful melodies into an immersive journey for every listener.

In December 2022, they released the studio EP “From Midland and Beyond”, a pilgrimage of power.

In the sunlit plains of the south of France, they were joined by guitarist Adrien Guingal and drummer Guillaume Remih, forming the fellowship that would carry Hartlight’s symphonic metal to the stage and share its burning energy with fans.

In January 2024, Hartlight released As Above So Below, a descent into suffering and confrontation, exploring chaos and forging strength through struggle.

February 2025 saw the unveiling of The Triumph of Metal, an odyssey of purification, clarity, and the forging of power through transformation.

Hartlight have built an immersive show and are now performing in festivals and venues across Europe. On stage, metal rises like an iron cathedral, driven by the united, shared energy of the musicians.

Hartlight is a collective of passionate artists who have mastered every aspect of their craft – from composing and producing music to creating stunning visuals – entirely independently. With perseverance and dedication, they continue to shape a universe of mystery, power, and poetic depth.

“The Alchemist community keeps growing, and we are deeply grateful for it. The third album is in production, promising an epic symphonic metal journey filled with emotion, grandeur, and unforgettable melodie!” Noémie
