Tune in TONIGHT at 1:35AM PT/ET to watch a performance and interview from CLAIRY BROWNE & THE BANGIN’ RACKETTES–who fuse soul, blues, doo-wop and R&B with Clairy’s powerful vocals and a pop-twist–on NBC TV’s “Last Call With Carson Daly.”
Already breakout stars in their native Australia, Clairy Browne & The Bangin’ Rackettes have signed with U.S. label Vanguard Records who will release their debut album BABY CAUGHT THE BUS on May 21. In its first week at radio, their first single “Love Letter” was the #1 Most Added at Triple A Radio with airplay at Alternative stations across America as well. Expect the group that the New York Music Daily described as “the great long-lost collaboration between David Lynch and John Waters” (April 1, 2013) to appear on a forthcoming episode of NPR’s “Weekend Edition” and to announce a U.S. summer tour soon.

About Clairy Browne & the Bangin’ Rackettes:
Formed in 2009 over a mutual love of early rhythm n’ blues records and rock n’ roll, singer-songwriter Clairy Browne and her harmonizing group of rogue musicians The Bangin’ Rackettes began rehearsing in an abandoned coffin factory in the suburbs of Melbourne. Together the nine-piece band has come a long way thrilling both festival and club crowds alike with their young, modern take on classic soul, rhythm and blues, jazz and doo-wop which plays a large part in their broad multi-generational appeal. Clairy Browne & the Bangin’ Rackettes—Clairy Browne (vocals), Camilla (vocals), Loretta Miller (vocals), Ruby Jones (vocals), Jules “Crazy Legs” Pascoe (bass guitar), Darcy McNulty (baritone sax), Gabriel Strango (Piano), Peter Bee (guitar) and Ricky Martyn (drums).
