Bag Raiders

Bag Raiders are icons of the Australian dance scene. After dropping cult underground cuts (Fun Punch, Turbo Love, Big Fun), Jack Glass and Chris Stracey signed to Modular Records and released their game-changing, self-titled debut album in 2010, debuting at No. 7 on the ARIA Album Chart and earning nominations from ARIA, triple j and APRA. The LP featured hit singles Way Back Home, Sunlight, Snake Charmer, and the now-legendary Shooting Stars — one of the biggest Australian dance tracks of all time. Shooting Stars has become a global phenomenon, racking up over 4 billion streams, 40+ Platinum and 7 Gold certifications, 18 million Shazams and peaked at No. 11 on Billboard’s Dance chart. They followed with acclaimed EPs (Waterfalls, Checkmate, Friend Inside) and teamed up with Mayer Hawthorne on Beat Me to the Punch. Their second LP Horizons arrived in 2019, followed by the launch of their label Broken Head Records in 2022 and club-driven releases like Love Me Back and Right Here / Saliba. In 2023, Troye Sivan sampled Shooting Stars on his Grammy-nominated single Got Me Started, and they dropped collabs with Boston Bun (SAVE ME) and Panama (Flowers). In 2025 and beyond, Bag Raiders are locked in for a relentless release schedule of club weapons — kicking off with Hold Me, out now on UK label The Cross Records.
