Tracer, Cage The Gods

'El Pistolero', the highly anticipated second album from Australia's award-winning powerhouse band Tracer, is due for release on May 6th. The band follow it up with a rescheduled tour, kicking off in Sheffield on June 8th.

Produced by Kevin Shirley (Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Slayer, Silverchair, Cold Chisel) 'El Pistolero' commands a high-energy mix of stoner anthems, biker attitude and classic rock - it's the sound of a 21st century band making their best album to date – a high-energy collection on no-holds-barred rock'n'roll. It's hot, loud and sweaty.

With the addition of new bassist Jett Heysen-Hicks, founding members Michael Brown (vocals and guitar) and Dre Wise (drums) are determined to take Tracer to the next level. "The song writing has gone up a peg or two," says Michael Brown. "Kevin had us doing things we would never have thought of doing and because of that we've stepped into a new realm. I think El Pistolero will define what Tracer is about, and why we're different to everyone else."
