The thought of outlaw country mixed with classic emo trap sounds like a concept almost too bizarre to even imagine, yet lil racecar and his affiliates are pioneering a sound vastly different from anything you may have heard of before.
Working closely with musicians gravelust and 1800entity, lil racecar and his group of California based outlaws have been performing at DIY house shows in cowboy hats and releasing tracks under the name OutWest. In one of their most recent tracks entitled “bed of lies,” lil racecar makes it clear that emo country is exactly what their sound is.
Produced with an acoustic guitar sample by 1800entity, lil racecar agonizingly whines and yodels about exactly what you would think a lonely cowboy stuck in the 21st Century might whine and yodel about in a song. With only sixteen tracks on SoundCloud, and frequently collaborating with the Cold World Gang group, the country singer has collected over 1k followers as well as over 10k listens on nearly every song he has released. lil racecar is an unforgettable and uniquely talented artist that we hope to see much more of in the future.
