Box Car Racer Biography
Box Car Racer was an American post-hardcore band formed in San Diego, California, in 2001. The band was a side project of Blink-182 members Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker, with David Kennedy of Hazen Street joining for studio recordings. Anthony Celestino later joined as a bassist for live performances. The project was created by DeLonge to explore darker musical ideas that he felt did not fit with Blink-182.
The band recorded its only album, "Box Car Racer", over six weeks beginning in December 2001, primarily at Signature Sound in San Diego.
