Upcoming Bag Raiders Tour
Australian dance royalty Bag Raiders have been stalwarts in the electronic music community since signing to Modular Records and releasing their debut self-titled album in 2010. With that, the game changed forever. The acclaimed LP featured smash hit singles ‘Way Back Home’, ‘Sunlight’, ‘Snake Charmer’ and festival anthem ‘Shooting Stars’ – which has become a global phenomenon, amassing over 4 billion online streams, 11 million Shazam’s and 32 Platinum and 7 Gold plaques worldwide. Bag Raiders duo Jack Glass and Chris Stracey released a stack of EP’s ‘Waterfalls’, ‘Checkmate’ and ‘Friend Inside’, plus singles ‘Nairobi’ and ‘Beat Me to the Punch’ ft. Mayer Hawthorne, before dropping second LP ‘Horizons’ in 2019 featuring cult singles ‘How Long’ and ‘Lightning’. In 2022 Bag Raiders launched their label Broken Head Records and a return to their clubbing roots releasing the ‘Love Me Back’ EP and double A-side ‘Right Here’ and ‘Saliba’. Last year pop icon Troye Sivan sampled ‘Shooting Stars’ on his monster single ‘Got Me Started’ and Bag Raiders returned the favour with an official remix. In 2024 Bag Raiders are pushing their collaborations with house music banger ’SAVE ME’ with French producer Boston Bun and ‘Flowers’; a more cerebral and introspective cut with Panama. Both singles dropping on Aussie independent label Future Classic, with more on the way. Watch this space!
