Melody Meets Power! Chariots Race combines sweet yet strong,
male and female vocal harmonies with an instrument style that
swings heavyweight, prizefighting punches in rhythm-based
hooks while incorporating melodies that dance between the
punches like ballerinas. While musical touchstones include
The Who, The Beatles, U2 and indie artists such as Giants
Chair, Ida, and Jawbox, Milwaukee Wisconsin’s Chariots
Race is neither bound by nor limited to these influences.
Chariots Race takes the reigns with a unique approach. So
hold on tight and brace yourself for the ride they'll take
you on.
Singer/guitarist Greg Steffke (Compound Red—Desoto
Records) started Chariots Race with long time musical collaborator
Brian Simons (The Kiwi Waltz—Divot Records). Quickly
the two recruited Erin Wolf to add her angelic voice and Chuck
Engel on drums. As time moved on new directions were formed
replacing Engel with Kevin J. Frank (Haymarket Riot—Divot
Records/Thick Records, Traluma—Caulfield Records, Kiwi
Waltz—Divot Records, Gauge) a profound drummer and an
excellent songwriter, and adding a Fender Rhodes to Wolf’s
duties. The result is songs that will attack with a precise
sweetness.
