Australian songwriter and producer Hugo Race's most recent releases are with the internationally acclaimed "BKO" by Dirtmusic (recorded in Africa and released by Glitterhouse Records), the electroacoustic instrumental "Between Hemispheres" (Gusstaff Records), and the French / Canadian Lilium's new album "Felt" (Glitterhouse).
Hugo Race's new solo album Fatalists is raw, moody and lyrically driven. Recorded in Italy, guitarist Antonio Gramentieri (Sea of Cortez, Delavega), percussionist Diego Sapignoli (Delavega), Arizonan violinist Vicky Brown and Dutch bassist Erik Van Loo (Willard Grant Conspiracy) create an acoustic, melodic sound that casts Hugo's songwriting and voice in a whole new light.
Hugo Race is a prolific and visionary performer, musician, writer and producer. Originally from Melbourne, Australia, Hugo's creative journey has given him 'world citizen' status, having lived over the course of the last 25 years in Sicily, France, Germany, the UK and the USA. Hugo's songwriting draws on pop culture from rock n roll to soul to delta blues to avantguard electronic soundscapes. With his band The True Spirit and his various Helixed productions and collaborations, Hugo defies any easy label and has staked out a creative territory between rock, experimental and psychedelia.
First introduced to the international stage as a founding member of Nick Cave's Bad Seeds (he appears on the debut, "From Her to Eternity", and features on several other Bad Seed's CDs and various compilations), Hugo then founded the seminal Australian art-punk cult band The Wreckery (1985), released through the White, Rampant, Citadel and Normal labels. (A Wreckery compilation,"Past Imperfect", was released in 2008 through Memorandum / Fuse Records, Sydney).
