Derek Vincent Smith (born November 25, 1981), better known as Pretty Lights, is an American electronic music artist.
A very good friend and a crucial part of our good vibe tribe got into a horrible car accident on May 11, 2012. Music was his life, his passion, and his talent. If there was anything in life that Mike Agana wanted to do he found a way to achieve it. His life serves as an example, showing us all that we can do anything we want if we simply set our minds to it. The day of the accident he was texting me about how excited he was to see Pretty Lights for the first time at SMF Tampa, just a few hours later he was in critical condition. Five days later he passed away and that was the last text message I ever received from him. I sent out a message to Pretty Lights himself asking if he could give a shout out in memory of our friend, and he responded with so much love and support for what we were doing for Mike. - Erica Nelson *A local artist was inspired by our message dedicated to our friend Mike Agana that passed away, so he created this original PL art piece on the bottom of a skateboard. After the show at Sunset Music Festival in Tampa, FL Pretty Lights (Derek) and his girlfriend Krystle felt compelled by my message to help me out in any way they could. Pretty Lights stopped the music half way through the show and gave a shout out to our friend that passed away. Screaming to his fans, “I wish our homie Mike could be here with us today, but don’t worry bro you’ll always be with us… and this one’s for you!” and then dropped his song “Out of Time”. I then received two backstage passes to jam onstage and hangout with Pretty Lights and his girlfriend after the show. They were so touched by the dedication that Mike’s friends have for him that he signed this art piece dedicated to Mike, saying “Much love, and class. Derek, PrettyLights.” Not only is this board an original masterpiece, but also holds a meaning that can never be truly explained. When this board is sold, all of the money will be directly donated to Mike Agana’s family in this extremely tough time. Thank you so much to everyone who supported this and made it happen. Dreams do come true, and whoever is the lucky buyer of this board possesses the positive energy of what love can do.
