Blusher Releases New Song “Racer”
Australian pop-trio Blusher, consisting of Miranda Ward, Lauren Coutts and Jade Ingvarson-Favretto, release the first single of 2025 entitled “Racer” on March 5, 2025.
The band first performed the song while opening for Sugababes on their Australian tour earlier this year.
The track features their electronic soundscapes and slick pop melodies. Lyrically, a recognition of the power that resides within their bond as a trio, the track elevates the ephemeral joy of the club into a profound expression of friendship.
It was written by Alisa Xayalith, Gabriel Strum, Jade Ingvarson-Favretto, Lauren Coutts, Miranda Ward, and Tyler Spry. Produced by Gab Strum, Lauren Coutts, Miranda Ward, and Tyler Spry.
Blusher said of the song, “Being a Racer means being your own stunt person, the main character of your own life. It’s being the person to start the dance floor while the rest of the party is worrying about what people think.”- They continued, “The song was written the morning after we went to a secret rave in downtown LA. We danced under a bridge and watched as people lit off fireworks from its highest point. The next day, sleep deprived and inspired, we bottled that feeling of euphoria and Racer was born. We want Racer to be the song that people turn up loud when they’re feeling sad or stressed, that helps them strut into the most unfazed, unstoppable, fastest version of themselves. It’s ultimately about our friendship and how we bring out the Racer in each other.”
