Bluerace has been a band, in one form or another, ever since its two guitarists and principal songwriters met at a jam session in New York back when they were both just kids. The band has opened up for, and appeared on bills with the likes of Pat Benatar, Eliot Easton (of The Cars), Fleetwood Mac, Steve Howe (of Yes), and R.E.O. Speedwagon. They have released two albums on their own independent label, big radio records - World is Ready (2009) and Beautiful Sky (2013) - and are presently at work on their third, as-yet-untitled album with the current lineup, in place since 2013. Their songs run the gamut from jangly guitars and Beatles-esque melodies to crunchy guitar-based music. Think Wilco meets the Replacements meets R.E.M., and you've got 'em.
