BAG RAIDERS

Bag Raiders' Jack Glass and Chris Stracey are preparing to bring their glittery electro-house pop jams to the USA, with the announcement of a March/April tour that includes a slot at dance music's mecca - Ultra Music Festival in Miami. The boys have been honing their live show on the Australian summer festival circuit, and are ready to bring some Sunlight to a club near you. Bag Raiders dropped in the US on January 25th, and instantly went Top 10 on the iTunes electronic charts, where it peaked last week at #4. Their album was #2 most added at RPM radio last week, and entered the CMJ RPM most played charts at #32.

"Gigantic, dulce de leche pop that expertly marries tuxedo dance with brazen, hooky vocals. ... Bag Raiders transcends typical dance and pop boundaries, showcasing the creativity of a band at the forefront of modern production. The album will appeal to fans new and old, coming correct with sing-a-long choruses, deep-breath anthems, blissful chill and pure dancefloor energy." - RCRDLBL
