It’s been quite a journey for Scottish indie rockers Frightened Rabbit. Starting out in 2006, it was initially just singer Scott Hutchinson on his own before he recruited his brother Grant a year later with a further three members to follow.
If he was searching for the magic formula, it looks like Scott has finally found it because with the release of their fourth album Pedestrian Verse, the band are starting to match their critical acclaim with commercial success.
Album track The Woodpile has been in heavy rotation for BBC Scotland and Radio 1 too. In fact, the band play BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Derry-Londonderry a month before Glastonbury.
For first timers to Frightened Rabbit, expect lovingly crafted rousing tracks in the vein of Elbow and Biffy Clyro, a few shaggy beards and a very good time.
