‘Trailblazer’, the debut single from UK rock band Tarraska, draws inspiration from a wide range of musically disparate sources, resulting in a classic hard rock sound that, hopefully, is also listenable. The lyrics detail the struggles of a trailblazer who is outcast and looked down upon for their unorthodoxy, loosely based on the life of Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister. 
‘Trailblazer’ encapsulates Tarraska’s identity and best represents the sound of the album to come.

Trailblazer

Tarraska are a new rock band from the south coast of England.
The core of the band gigged acoustically from 2014 and steadily wrote and played their original material.  This included hundreds of performances at a multitude of venues and a major festival appearance.
As they started recording this material, the tracks demanded a heavier sound and TARRASKA was born.

‘Trailblazer’, their first single was released on all digital formats on May 6th 2020.  Within a week of release, ‘Trailblazer’ has had a number of radio airplays.

‘Trailblazer’ was written by Jack Lande and Ben Parker of Tarraska.
It was recorded and mixed at Absolute Studios and GMMix both in Bournemouth by Gareth Matthews and produced by Gareth Matthews and TARRASKA.  Mastering was completed by Grant Berry at Fader Mastering, Manchester.
Appearing on the track are Jack Lande (all vocals, rhythm guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar), Ben Parker (lead guitar, rhythm guitar and bass guitar) and Shaun Brown (drums).
