About a Girl

Races are a new band from Van Nuys, led by Wade Ryff. Their first LP, Year of the Witch, is most certainly a heartbreak album... you don't even have to listen to the songs, just read the song titles: the knife, don't be cruel, all for you, walk through the fire, lies.

An uplifting album it is not, but it is haunting and harsh and beautiful at the same time. And a great start for a very promising band. Here is their second video for the song Lies, shot in Van Nuys:

You can stream their album through Spotify or through their bandcamp right here.
