Bootleg Rascal have got me grooving with their latest single “From The Very Start.” This Yugambeh Country/Gold Coast duo are always a good time and their soulful, synth-infused newie is right up there with their best.
“As the title and lyrics allude to, this song is all about beginnings – exploring the origins of romantic relationships, musical collaborations, friendships, and careers,” explained Bootleg Rascal guitarist Jimmy Young.
Not content with taking their Booty Block Party all over Oz, Bootleg Rascal recently announced a couple more local festivals and some Aotearoa/New Zealand dates.
“We’re stoked to be coming back to New Zealand!” enthused Bootleg Rascal frontman Carlos Lara. “The vibe there is always incredible, and we’re buzzing to team up with The Darlings for some unforgettable shows. We’re ready to bring the party, and we want everyone to join us!”
