Racetrack

Label: Skrocki
Genre: Pop

Bellingham, Warshington (as my dad would say) can just crank out pop-rock bands, while still maintaining a very high ratio of good-to-not-good bands. Racetrack, well, they help the ratio on the good side. Throwing around big hooks and a raspy guitar, this three-piece is driven by Meghan Kessinger's steady singing, aided on their debut album by Death Cab for Cutie's Chris Walla. And how do Racetrack describe themselves? "Picture riding a go-kart while eating a pickle."
