SKYRACER Release Debut Album ‘SKYRACER V1.0’

Sheffield duo SKYRACER have officially released their debut album ‘SKYRACER V1.0’, marking an exciting milestone in a journey built on friendship, nostalgia and a shared passion for cinematic pop-rock.

Following a run of acclaimed singles, growing streaming support and a UK tour alongside synth-rock favourites LeBrock, the duo have continued to establish their place within the modern alternative scene. Released on 24th July 2026, ‘SKYRACER V1.0’ brings together the sound and stories that have shaped the band’s identity so far.

Formed by lifelong friends Dan Fox and Chris Brayshaw, SKYRACER have spent recent years creating music inspired by 90s nostalgia, late-night conversations and the challenge of growing older while still holding on to the experiences and memories that made them who they are.

Their sound combines energetic pop-punk guitars, shimmering synth textures and heartfelt storytelling, creating a cinematic blend of rock and electronic influences. With comparisons to artists such as The Ataris, The Midnight, Boys Like Girls and Busted, SKYRACER deliver songs that balance youthful energy with a more reflective perspective on life, relationships and personal growth.

‘SKYRACER V1.0’ takes listeners through a collection of themes that have become central to the band’s music, including love, ambition, identity, friendship, nostalgia and loss. The album captures both the excitement of unforgettable moments and the emotions that come with looking back on the paths that brought us here.

From the neon-lit atmosphere of ‘Under The Lights’ to the reflective longing of ‘We’ve Been Alive’, the explosive intensity of ‘Los Alamos’ and the hopeful energy of ‘Last Token’, the record showcases SKYRACER’s ability to create music that feels both personal and universal.

At its heart, ‘SKYRACER V1.0’ is an album about the moments that define us: first loves, old friendships, long journeys home, dreams that change over time and the people who make life meaningful. It is a celebration of holding on to the memories that shape us while continuing to move forward.

With their debut album, SKYRACER have created a nostalgic yet fresh pop-rock experience that connects with anyone who still carries a piece of their younger self. ‘SKYRACER V1.0’ is a powerful introduction to a band building a world filled with emotion, energy and timeless storytelling.
