SUPPORT FOR ‘LONELY TIMES’

“What a mix of styles and sounds the Bootleg boys have chucked in the mixing bowl on this one. All up though, it’s another ultimate cruiser”.
Declan Byrne – triple j (AUS)

All the elements of this tune are understated just enough for the electiveness to work as one — a summer tune with post-night out vibes”.
Nkechi Anele – triple j (AUS)


 Currently in the midst of a 15-date metro and regional tour, Sydney-based party starters Bootleg Rascal have just unveiled East Coast tour dates and their new single ‘Lonely Times’ – produced by the band themselves and long-time collaborator Ian Pritchett (Boo SeekaKim ChurchillAngus and Julia Stone), with additional production by Simon Dobson (Little May).

‘Lonely Times’ is a feel good summer party anthem that shines a light on the duo’s unique genre-fusion. Melding their sun-soaked reggae and dub roots with modern day hip-hop, the track captures an unrelenting energy filled with infectious hooks, deft instrumentation and clever vocal cadences.

The release is accompanied by the music video, shot at front man Carlos Lara’s house in Sydney by Sam Brumby (Julia JacklinThe RubensAli Barter).

Following on from their sold-out ‘Yin & Yang’ tour, the group have announced another East Coast capital city run for March and April. Coming along for the ride will be Brisbane stalwarts, Shag Rock, and Sydney-based punk-rock crowd favourites, SCABZ.

The duo will also make an appearance at ‘Day on the Lawn’ in HobartTasmania on March 21, sharing stages with the likes of Boy & Bear and MEG MAC.

Furthermore, the group have revealed news that they’ll be donating 100% of profits from tickets sold at tonight’s show at Miranda Hotel, to the NSW Rural Fire Service, in the wake of the current bushfire crisis.

Since their mid-2013 inception, Bootleg Rascal have released a slew of singles, an EP and two albums, all warmly received by critics and fans around the world. Multiple tracks have been added to Spotify and Apple Music playlists, high rotation on triple j and they’ve performed on the stations esteemed ‘Like a Version’ segment.

The band have continually traversed the globe playing multiple sold out headline shows in FranceUKHollandGermanyNew Zealand and Australia, and performed sold out shows in the USA. They’ve also regularly appeared on major Australian festivals including Falls Festival, The Big Pineapple FestivalLost ParadiseHills are AliveFestival of the Sun and Party in the Paddock.
