CLAIRY BROWNE & THE BANGIN RACKETTES:
Formed in 2009 over a mutual love of early rhythm n’ blues records and rock n’ roll, singersongwriter
Clairy Browne and her harmonizing group the Bangin’ Rackettes began rehearsing
in an abandoned coffin factory called “The Pound” in the suburbs of Melbourne. Together the
nine-piece band has come a long way thrilling both festival and U.S. club crowds alike with their
young take on old-school soul, rhythm and blues, jazz and doo-wop which plays a large part in
their broad multi-generational appeal. Already breakout stars in their native Australia, the group
is now taking the U.S. by storm. Released in the U.S. via Vanguard Records, their debut
album--rooted in old-school R&B and soul, re-imagined for today--debuted at #5 on the
Billboard Heatseekers Chart, #1 on the iTunes R&B Albums Chart, #15 on the iTunes
Albums Chart, #2 on Amazon “Movers & Shakers” and #7 on the Amazon Albums Chart. In
its first week at radio, their single “Love Letter” was the #1 Most Added at Triple A Radio.
