Constantly evolving, the boys in Racing Kites share the same goals and passion for music. Based in New Jersey but representing the neighboring states Pennsylvania, and Delaware these five friends have no problem commuting to practice. After touring 26 states and independently selling close to 1300 hard copies of their self-released EP "We Hold It All Together" and 1600 downloads on iTunes since April '07 the boys were recently dubbed one of the 100 bands you need to know by Absolutepunk.net. Having recorded brand new demos in November '07 with Rob Freeman (Hit the Lights, Cobra Starship) and with Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (Cartel, Mayday Parade) in February '08 Racing Kites continue to show growth and plan to tour the rest of the country in 2008. Come and experience the bands energetic live show in their upcoming tours and please befriend the band, they absolutely enjoy making new friends.

"Racing Kites craft the kind of tunes that make you feel good, and that's what good music supposed to do. I expect big things from this band."
