Blusher are back with a their new dancefloor bop 'Racer'
'Racer' was first previewed during their support slot for Sugababes' Australian tour earlier this year.
Blusher have shared their new single 'Racer', marking the start of a fresh chapter for the Australian pop trio.
The track follows a significant 2024 for the band, which saw them perform their first sold-out headline shows in London and Australia, appear at BST Hyde Park supporting Kylie Minogue, and complete tours across the US, UK and Europe supporting Daði Freyr. They also performed at London Pride in Leicester Square and supported acts including Tove Lo and Aurora.
'Racer' was first previewed during their support slot for Sugababes' Australian tour earlier this year. The track was inspired by a night out in Los Angeles, as the band explain: "The song was written the morning after we went to a secret rave in downtown LA. We danced under a bridge and watched as people lit off fireworks from its highest point. The next day, sleep deprived and inspired, we bottled that feeling of euphoria and Racer was born."
"Being a Racer means being your own stunt person, the main character of your own life. It's being the person to start the dance floor while the rest of the party is worrying about what people think," they continue. "We want Racer to be the song that people turn up loud when they're feeling sad or stressed, that helps them strut into the most unfazed, unstoppable, fastest version of themselves. It's ultimately about our friendship and how we bring out the Racer in each other."
The single follows their 2024 releases 'Somebody New', 'Overglow', '24 Hours in Paris', 'Accelerator' and 'Rave Angel', which came after their debut EP 'Should We Go Dance?'.
