Indie Rock quartet “rase” formed in late 2004. Rase comprises of Dan Greenaway (Vocals / Guitar), Jay Goodison (Vocals / Guitar), Giles Smith (Bass) and Matt Yates (Drums). Post recording their eponymously titled debut album in 2005 and following a minor line-up change, rase settled on their sound releasing an EP (2008) providing an indication of the bands intent. Armed with new songs, increasing popularity and exciting live shows, including supporting slots for Casino (Feat. Adam Zindani: Stereophonics) and Them Is Me (formally Reef) rase have released a further EP titled “Nothing To Lose”, also the name of their debut single. “Nothing To Lose” provides 4 tracks produced by Gavin Monahan at The Magic Garden (Editors, The Twang, etc). Expect to see much more of rase in 2009/10.
