First thing's first: Full disclosure. I used to help with Blue Rabbit 's publicity. BUT, I assure you that I meet the criteria for a bona fide fan, i.e. going out to as many of their live shows as I possibly can, discussing them at length with other Rabbit Heads, and listening to their album obsessively. Back in 2005, Heather Anderson, BR's founder and general mastermind (composer, songwriter and singer/guitarist) formed the band as an experimental drums and vocal duo. Since then, the group has swelled to its current eight member count, [...]

OK, this may be an odd question: How would a mash-up between Rasputina and Tilly And The Wall sound? It's hard to think about as one would believe the result would be a bit awkward. But it's not; just listen to "Sleep" by Blue Rabbit . There's the dark cello, a Rasputina signature. And pop-riddled vocals are sung by multiple individuals in a manner quite like Tilly And The Wall. And here's the kicker: it works, and it works well. Blue Rabbit is a San Francisco-base collective currently [...]

The Deli SF says, "never mind the taxman-let's live it up while there's living to be had!" with a whimsical "Tax Day Party" at The Hemlock tonight: Blue Rabbit , Sacramento's Chelsea Wolfe and Tippy Canoe (Oakland). Blue Rabbit embarks on dark, serene musical journeys thanks to cello, harp and a thick layer of female voices. They reside and play often here in the city, and the feeling is that you'll leave this song on repeat once you've heard it: [...]
