An extended version, titled A6Extended, will be released on January 30, 2026 containing eight additional songs, with "Education", "Learning to Let Go", and "Come Get Your Girl" being released as singles.

Background

As her first independently released album, A6 was also the first album where Lights played almost every instrument on and produced every track. This made the album very personal for her. She further explained the background of the album in an interview with Songwriter Universe:

Critical reception

A6 received positive reviews from critics. Matt Collar of AllMusic gave the album a 3.5 out of 5 star-rating and wrote that "At the center of A6's black lipstick-stained, glitter-goth atmosphere is Poxleitner with her throaty coo, sounding as vulnerable and utterly in charge as ever.". He praised the songs "Surface Tension", "Alive Again", "Damage", and "White Paper Palm Trees".

Track listing

All tracks are written and produced by Valerie Poxleitner as well as Brodie Tavares as writer on tracks 4, 10, and 11.
