Little Racer is a quartet out of Brooklyn making poppy surf tunes that are ready to take you to the dance floor or the beach, whatever you’re down for. The raw honesty of their lyrics – not to mention a propensity for booze – makes Little Racer instantly charming and an undoubtedly good time. Their recently released EP, Modern Accent, is a lush, melancholy delight, and with warmer weather on its way, Little Racer shaping up to be the perfect jam for unwinding with a drink on a summer’s night.

Check out a few of the things that make help Little Racer let loose, from Wisconsin bar fights to the Simpsons. But first, watch their awesome video for Dancing.
