Friday, August 1st, 2025 – São Paulo rock outfit StarAce unleash their most defiant statement yet with “Right In The Middle,” a rallying anthem that rejects extremism while embracing rock ‘n’ roll’s power to awaken the soul. Listen to the new track HERE and watch the music video HERE. The track arrives alongside news that their debut album Real will drop October 24th, with pre-orders going live today HERE.
Produced by David Frangioni (Aerosmith, KISS, Ringo Starr), “Right In The Middle” finds StarAce channeling raw independence through driving rhythms and unapologetic lyrics. The song stands as their most politically charged yet paradoxically apolitical statement, advocating for individual thought over ideological extremes. Frontman Julio Starace shares
“A roar for independence and union, ‘Right In the Middle’ means to be apolitical and against all extreme ideologies. In a world filled with hypocrisy and inequality, this song stands for listening to your inner voice and your soul, taking responsibility for doing the right thing, standing up for your own rights and not letting anybody tell you what to think, feel, say or believe. The song expresses the power of Rock and Roll music, and the need for every soul to be awakened and aware is the best way to balance and free ourselves from extremist pollution.”

The release comes as StarAce prepares to bring their high-energy live show to Capital Moto Week, Latin America’s largest motorcycle and rock festival. The band will take the Rock Saloon Stage on Saturday, August 2nd at 10:00 PM, performing for over 300,000 festival-goers in Brasília alongside acts like Angra, Magic, and Paralamas do Sucesso.

StarAce’s debut album Real, due October 24th, represents nearly two years of remote collaboration with Frangioni, who produced the entire 12-track collection while the band recorded from São Paulo. The album spans from the gypsy jazz swagger of “When The Light Has Gone” to the anthemic hope of “My America,” with “Right In The Middle” showcasing their most direct and uncompromising side.
StarAce continues building momentum as one of Brazil’s most promising rock exports, combining authentic family chemistry with cutting-edge production techniques and undeniable rock n roll spirit. Their music bridges classic rock heritage with contemporary relevance, speaking to audiences hungry for genuine expression in an increasingly polarized world

ABOUT STARACEStarAce is more than just a band—it’s a brotherhood of sound and spirit. Hailing from São Paulo, Brazil, brothers Julio, Luiz, and Thomaz Starace have spent years refining their craft, creating a distinct fusion of classic rock, blues, and American roots music with a modern edge. Raised in a household filled with music, their early exposure shaped their passion for storytelling and musicianship. After experimenting under various names like Ferrorama and Ted Marengos, they ultimately returned to StarAce, a name that embodies both their family heritage and artistic evolution.
With influences spanning a who’s who of rock ‘n’ roll legends such as Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, and Muddy Waters, StarAce’s music is a blend of raw energy, intricate vocal melodies, and heartfelt lyricism. Their sound bridges past and present, layering soulful guitar riffs, grooving bass lines, and dynamic drum beats with emotionally driven storytelling. Their upcoming debut album, produced by David Frangioni (Aerosmith, KISS, Ringo Starr), captures this fusion of classic and contemporary, delivering a collection of hard-hitting anthems and soul-stirring ballads that showcase their depth as musicians.
Each member brings a unique essence to the band’s chemistry—Julio leads with his powerful vocals and intricate guitar work, drawing from the greats like Neil Young and Jimmy Page. Luiz anchors the rhythm section, blending Paul McCartney’s melodic sensibilities with Geddy Lee’s technical prowess, while Thomaz commands the drums with precision, balancing raw energy and a refined flare with a producer’s ear for sonic excellence.
With their roots deeply embedded in classic rock and their vision set on the future, StarAce is ready to carve their own path and bring timeless rock ‘n’ roll into a new era. They’re not here to save the world, they’re here to bring people together and provide fans with the soundtrack to their own salvation. After years of refining their vision and sound, their long-awaited debut album, Real, is a bold, genre-spanning statement from a band ready to leave their mark on the world.
