Rock’n’roll is a never-ending celebration. Of life, no rx good times and the healing power of overdriven guitars. But while everyone is invited to the party, only a few get to stay to the end.

Formed a decade ago in Australia, the mighty TRACER have accessed rock’s heart and soul, and after two widely-praised albums and relentless worldwide touring, this swirling firestorm trio has become one of the most vital young bands around.

Fusing a bluesy core of hard rock to stoner and powerhouse grunge, Tracer’s explosive entrance with 2011’s Spaces In Between made it perfectly clear that an exhilarating new force had arrived.

Follow up El Pistolero, produced with Kevin Shirley (Maiden/Zepp/Silverchair/Bonamassa), cranked up the churning, desert rock vibe with sharpened songwriting, and the ensuing trek around the planet amassed them a huge international army of new admirers. But things had to change…

“At the beginning of 2014, the band that I started as a 16 year old with my brother and my best friend had taken us on a journey that many would consider a dream run,” recalls singer/guitarist Michael Brown. “We had fans all over the world, we had a great team behind us, famous producers wanted to work with us and a Top 10 album. Our relationship with our record company was reaching an end, but personally I was happy. We had control of the band back, we could choose who we worked with and what we wanted from our music. We rose with a new fire in our bellies.”

So what happens now? More shows, more hard work… and more glory.

Water For Thirsty Dogs does exactly what it says on the tin – life-affirming rock’n’roll refreshment! Tracer are poised to finally receive the recognition their dreams deserve.
