The song was released in Australian on 9 September 2016 and the music video on 15 September. The single peaked at number 82 on the ARIA Chart for the week commencing 26 September 2016.

Henderson told Student Edge HQ he was asked to write an up-tempo and lively song for the movie by the producers. Henderson said "Light Up the Dark" about living in the moment. [1] Henderson performed the song at the Sydney premier of Spin Out on 14 September 2016.

Henderson said "I think this is probably the most excited I have been in a long time, "Light Up the Dark" gives you a sneak peek into what the album is going to sound like and it’s so awesome that it was a part of such a cool Aussie film!"[2]
