    About CARRERA They're from Utrecht, right smack-bam in the middle of the freaky deaky dutch lowlands some call the Netherlands. They'd been limping around the dikes on their clogs for ages, getting hit in the head by those darn windmills, all lightheaded by the low-carb tulip bulb diet, not to mention the pot and beers. They got totally fed up with it all and started ROCKING hard under the name CARRERA in the summer of '96.


    Book the bastards! It's all about the MUSIC, people. Book CARRERA now!
    They're eager to ROCK and willing to travel. They have their own transportation, backline and PA system. Willing to hook up with other bands for support shows and tours. Always happy to send you a promo pack if you're up for it!
    They do drink a lot of your beer, though.
