After early interest
from John Peel and a release on Fierce Panda Records 75 compilation
'From Greer to Eternity' named 'I feel', Solar Race in 1995 released
'Not Here' single on Silvertone Records followed by a four track
'Solar Race EP'. then "The Peel Sessions Bar 2" put together from two
of their Peel Sessions at Maidavaile. 'Resillient Little Muscle' was
released in 1996 recorded with John Fryer. The Album 'Homespun' was
released in 1997, recorded at Abbey Road with Steve Albini, 'Lee
Speaks' being their released track. Fierce Panda Records released
another CD Album Compilation with the track 'Skewiff'. Solar Race were
known as a powerful live act . They were invited to support Hole in
England. Then toured with Bush in 1997 playing to large audiences
around Europe. France was a popular stopping place for Solar Race, at
festivals and live recordings for French Radio. Shellac, Steve
Albini's band gave "good association" and both played date in England
together. Considering Solar Races obscurity and musical intent,
independant of the Manchester music scene at the time they achieved
surprising success and support from decerning music listeners and
notable figures around. If you ever saw them live you were unlikely to
forget them. A powerful trio with vocals that would wake the coldest
of souls.
