Frightened Rabbit’s Tweets

Picture Scott scribbling away in this book sat at a kitchen table in an old house we were recording in, Briar Grove, Kingussie. It was cold but the sun was shining through & he seemed very pleased with the words he’d written on the front. Such a wonder to share it with everyone.

On marking the 10 year anniversary of the album, we wanted people to see his lyric notes and get an insight in to how he works on a song from start to finish. We’re immensely proud of this album and will be forever grateful for where it took us.

And so it has arrived. 2023. And just like that our fourth album, Pedestrian Verse turns 10 years old. This has always been the album we were most proud of as a band. It was written collectively and I think was the best and most mature example of Scott’s songwriting.

Win a copy of the new paperback edition of The Work by following this link and answering a very simple question on website. It’s as lovely as the hardback and just a bit floppier.

So sad to hear the news of Steve Strange passing. If you’ve seen us play anywhere outside of the US you’ve him to thank and we’d be nowhere near where we are without his tireless work and infectious laugh! So many unshareable stories. RIP Strangey x

Hello everybody! Just a quick note to say we probably still won’t be posting too much on here since there’s not much to say but we’re putting some photos up on our Instagram of Scott’s illustrations and times past. If that’s your thing then head over for a look X

This was the inspiration for the drums in Wedding Gloves, our song with and I haven’t heard it since. Such a random reminder of something I’d basically forgotten existed (the Italian tune not ours!). open.spotify.com/track/61HQPCW7

Italian singer Adriano Celentano released a song in the 70s with nonsense lyrics meant to sound like American English, apparently to prove Italians would like any English song. It was a hit, and resulted in this: THE GREATEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN.

This is what we think Scott would want people to see and say on his birthday. Spread it far and wide and remember it applies to how you treat yourself and not just others. Happy Birthday Scott. We miss you. G, A, B & S x

So, show them off to your friends in between episodes of Schitt's Creek and Buffy, or to the person in the shop down the road. Either way take a moment and embrace the coastal winds this winter and stay safe and stay warm. FR x

We chose this to reflect the time we are all in now and the importance of people over stuff. Scott's words always burrowed deep within people and this was the song he was probably most proud of writing and loved to play live.

"The Wrestle," recorded at the Grog Shop, Cleveland in May 2010, is from a time when we were still finding our feet with the songs and learning how they were going to play out live. On the other side is “Things," recorded at The Roundhouse, London 2016.
