Wild Rabbit (formerly Br’er Rabbit) comes to Spokane for a benefit show at the Big Dipper, with guests the Brown’s Mountain Boys
Though all four members of Wild Rabbit (formerly Br’er Rabbit) grew up running around wooded areas of the same small town in the farthest Northwest corner of Washington state, brothers Zach and Nathan didn’t meet Miranda, the third founding member, until they had all ended up in New York City. This kind of backyard folk seasoned by the edge, polish and fervor of big-city inclinations is at the root of the style they call folk-stomp Americana. The group revamps classic string band instrumentation with homespun percussion and the unique integration of six-string ukulele and cello. With their widely varying influences, three distinct vocal styles and copious amounts of foot-stomping, they demonstrate a sound and presence that’s at once original and familiar, appealing to audiences of all generations and genres. Voted best band in their home city of Bellingham, WA for the last two years, they have quickly risen to local renown and are currently touring extensively throughout the U.S. The band recently recorded their first full-length album at the famed Bear Creek Studio (The Lumineers, Fleet Foxes), partially funded by Kickstarter campaign and released independently in March 2014. The Wild North, having debuted on the CMJ Top 200 chart for independent radio nationwide, is available now on iTunes, Spotify, and at wildrabbitmusic.com.
The Brown’s Mountain Boys is a Spokane Bluegrass and Americana group with outstanding seasoned professionals who have an extensive repertoire of original music, the best of familiar Bluegrass songs, as well as modern material. BMB will get you laughing, clapping, tapping your feet, and dancing to the music!
Join KYRS for a night of backyard folk and foot-stomping fun February 6th!
