/24-7PressRelease/ - Los Angeles, CA, July 17, 2008 - GRAM RABBIT have been critical darlings and concert favorites for years since their first appearances. They have received significant airplay on INDIE 103.1 Los Angeles, and have been championed by nationally-renowned station KCRW. The band has mesmerized crowds at Coachella, San Diego's Street Spirit festival, and London's Wireless festival. The LA Weekly declares, "Gram Rabbit offer up in spectacle exactly what they do in sound: music that reminds you of everything from eerie desert twilights to Carter-family country and then again sounds like nothing you've ever heard."
Live performances find lead singer Jessica Von Rabbit decked out in dishy stage costumes and rabbit headgear alongside guitarist/vocalist Todd Rutherford, also dressed to the nines; the two appear as if the evil descendants of folk couple Ian & Sylvia. The founding members are joined on stage by Ethan Allen on guitar and Hillary Hack on electronics. The band reports that the Sunset Junction show will include "ear candy, eye candy, and a pot of strange brew." They will be performing material from their latest release, Radio Angel & The RobotBeat, produced by guitarist Allen (Kristin Hersh, 50 Foot Wave, Luscious Jackson). The album features the appropriately titled "I Wear The Ears," a call-to-arms track with a slowly sinister electronic beat augmented by clock tower bells, string samples and Rabbit's devilish command to "Activate your frontal lobe/disengage your anal probe."
In regards to the upcoming shows, Jessica offers up a couplet, "We're hot and weird with that desert soul/but in the end we're still rock and roll."
