LIVE@ MOSHULU £8.00 adv tickets from One Up/ ticketweb / seetickets 7.30pm doors Barfly Aberdeen presents... FRIGHTENED RABBIT Though the past year has seen Frightened Rabbit finally step into public view, with more extensive touring and some recordings now publicly available, the past few years have largely been about the band quietly, commitedly honing their sound, and cultivating their art. An incredibly accomplished live outfit (seemingly without any effort whatsoever), in 2007, a brief but succesful US jaunt, culminated in a sold-out show at The Mercury Lounge in NYC, before the 1st album was even available in the US. After an intense spate of writing, rehearsing, recording, and remixing, and of course playing more live shows, ‘Sings The Greys’ was remastered by Alan Douches, and re-released in significantly revamped form by FatCat Autumn 2007, along with debut single ‘Be Less Rude’. Rounding off the year with the incredible 'It's Christmas So We'll Stop' single, 2008 Following less than six months in tow of the aforementioned LP, ‘Midnight Organ Fight’, is their new album and a progression in terms of songwriting and sonic depth. Recorded by Peter Katis (Mercury Rev, Interpol) over the space of two weeks, and mixed over the ensuing fortnight, ‘Midnight Organ Fight’ was conceived and realised in a much shorter time span than its predecessor, with the intention of creating a more coherent, ‘pop’ sounding album. Yet although musically more immediate, vitally, the band have not forsaken the personality or passion of any of their earlier recordings.
