J.F. Gagnon: Playing the guitar that's Chevy Guitarra who's played by Sebastian Robichaud. There's also Road Train Bill on drums played by Stephane Gaudreau and there's Lorenzo Pistone who's played by Y B on the guitarist.
Rebecca Britain: How did you guys all meet?
Alec McElcheran: We have been working for about 10 years now often on different demos and different things, mostly car zone songs basically the same project.
Rebecca Britain: What are some of your musical influences, you, yourself, and you as well or a band as well?
J.F. Gagnon: I think you are a big Elvis fan, am I right?
Alec McElcheran: I am on Beatles, Beatles, Stones, little bit The Clash and there, , Ennio Morricone sounds tracks-- and thats' pretty much what we try to bring, you call it sound track rock and it's cinematographic rock.
Rebecca Britain: So your new album is out today, you want to tell some bit about it.
J.F. Gagnon: That's called Freedom Road and it's got 10 songs on it. It's perfect album to take in your car and roll down your windows and sing along. At the End of Roads is pretty much, probably my favorite on the album, that all of us are attracted to. We have similar taste.
Alec McElcheran: it's hard to do the favorite and when it's kind of being a song to your kids and we are working on them for a while. I like them all.
J.F. Gagnon: You will discover as we go along with doing the shows, that each songs is related also in character. So it's on the history.
Rebecca Britain: So what's the next step for you guys, you have any other plans?
J.F. Gagnon: Next step is touring and selling records but touring definitely we have, we are going to playing in all major racing events in North America and also normal venues opening at for other bands etc.
Rebecca Britain: Okay, thank you very much. This is been the Dizzy Racers on watchmojo.com.
