Bag Raiders move to 'Checkmate' with new track
Stream the latest from the LA-based Aussies
After smashing it in The Lab SYD with a classic set to kick off the year, Bag Raiders have just dropped new single 'Checkmate'.
The track features the vocals of Safia's Benjamin Joseph and is the first taste of the Sydney-bred, LA-based duo's latest three-track EP. The release follows last year's 'Waterfalls' and 'Friend Inside' EPs and, of course, their stunning 2010 self-titled LP. Those waiting for another Bag Raiders full-length will have to hold out just a little longer, with the duo putting the finishing touches on a new album.
In the meantime, check out 'Checkmate', and info on Bag Raiders' upcoming North American tour, below.
Bag Raiders' 'Checkmate' EP is out February 26 in AUS and March 4 worldwide.
