Racing Birds’ single takes off!

If you haven’t heard of Racing Birds then you’ve been missing out on one of our greatest local musical talents. Born and bred in Stanwell Park and now residing in Helensburgh with his young family, Jeremy Strother, and his band mate, Bobbie Lee Stamper, have just released their alt-country, guitar-driven and foot-stomping debut single Rarely Never Loaded.

Their unique bluesy rhythms have garnered them a cult following, and with their prolific song-writing pedigree it’s not hard to see why. Jeremy’s accomplishments include working across I Am Apollo and Stellar Perry (The Voice Australia), alongside a publishing deal with New York agency Frisbee. USA-born Bobbie cut his teeth as a guitarist for Jon McLaughlin, sharing stages with Sara Bareilles, Colbie Caillat and Bon Jovi. Closer to home, he’s performed with Australia’s finest, including Guy Sebastian, Human Nature and Matt Corby, to name a few.

Coming together they create a raw and captivating sound, pulling listeners into their story; creating vivid imagery of neon signs, fading tail lights and California skies.

Rarely Never Loaded is available via Spotify, Apple Music and more. Scan the QR code to watch it on YouTube. Follow @rrracingbirds on Instagram
