Bad Rabbits Bring Better Days To Huffington Post

Bad Rabbits Premiere New Single “Better Days” via Huffington Post
Available on iTunes September 23rd

Set To Join Allen Stone During North American Fall Tour Beginning September 23rd

“…startling versatility with a crack band and a nimble vocalist…”- Pitchfork

“…these Boston boys are all about laying down some finger-lickin’ grooves and letting loose on the dance floor. At the heart of the group is vocalist Fredua Boakye, whose huge range climaxes with some of the best falsettos you will ever hear — the guy is unstoppable.” – Huffington Post

“Bad Rabbits have carved out a niche thanks to their unique musical fusion: a contemporary latticework of sound ranging from tireless rock ballads to funk sodden tracks reminiscent of the likes of Prince.” – Interview

“…a vibrant, horn-blasting, dirty bass funk-popping blast of throwback R&B charm…” – MTV Buzzworthy
“…Armed to the teeth with an infectious, boundless energy, their live shows have been making impressions from Beantown down to the Caribbean…” – Vice’s Noisey.com

Acclaimed post-R&B rockers Bad Rabbits have premiered their brand new single “Better Days” today via Huffington Post. The song, out on iTunes September 23rd, will be released in conjunction with the start of the band’s Fall North American tour, which will include dates with Allen Stone. The tour kicks off on September 23rd in San Diego, CA, hitting cities from coast to coast before wrapping on October 30th in San Francisco, CA. For tickets, please visit www.badrabbits.com. Proclaims Huffington Post, “Better Days” is “an electrifying anthem of optimism, soaked in a bouncy soundtrack that can best be defined as a healthy dose of tropical sunshine.”

Bad Rabbits’ debut album American Love hit the #1 spot on the iTunes R&B Chart and the Top 10 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. The band appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (PRESS HERE to watch) and The Arsenio Hall Show and garnered praise from the likes of Pitchfork, Huffington Post, USA Today, Interview, MTV Buzzworthy, Spin, Alternative Press, Vice and Vibe. Amidst working on their new music, the Boston-based five-piece made a stop at SXSW earlier this year, delivered rousing sets at the 7th Annual Roots Picnic and Parahoy! (Paramore Cruise), and played the Warped Tour 2014.

Bad Rabbits’ anticipated sophomore album, co-written by Grammy-Award winner James Fauntleroy (Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Rihanna, Timbaland), is set for a 2015 release.
