One of our favorite up and coming bands, The Raskins have been selected to support Ted Nugent on the upcoming July dates. The Raskins which is led by the brother duo of Logan and Roger Raskin have captured a lot of attention when they performed on 70 dates of the Motley Crue final tour. After the tour, they headed straight back into the studio and wrote 40 songs – 12 of which will be featured on their new album.
Their new album which they worked at Henson Studios, with French producer/engineer Nico Essig (Coldplay, Paul McCartney, the Goo Goo Dolls), as well as producer Brian Virtue (30 Seconds to Mars, Jane’s Addiction, Kiss), and will also be issuing a new song “Never Too Late” to be released right before their summer tour (released on MIRAL Records). “Can’t think of a better way to release our new single,” says Logan about the upcoming dates with the Nuge. “It’s so wild to think that the Raskins get a chance to tour with such a rock icon as Ted Nugent,” adds Roger. “Two of our favorite rock songs of all time are of course ‘Cat Scratch Fever’ and ‘Stranglehold’.”

The band will also be adding a few new songs from the upcoming album into the setlist for this incredible tour with Ted Nugent. Joining Logan and Roger (who handle vocals and guitar/vocals respectively), will be Jet Lopez (guitars), Michael Reynoso (bass/vocals), and Troy Patrick Farrell (“the animal drummer”).
