...according to our Maggie on 26 July 2007.
White Rabbits, a Brooklyn six-piece, come to NYC via the arid plains of the Mid West. Although they have been in the City for just over a year, they have managed to catch the attention of Say Hey Records and producer Chris Zane (Shy Child, Asobi Seksu, Les Savy Fav) with their stellar songwriting ability and instrumental aplomb.
Lead by dual vocalists, Greg Roberts (Guitar / Vox) and Steve Patterson (Piano / Vox), the 6-piece is rounded out by Alex Even (Guitar / Vox), Adam Russell (Bass), Matt “The Duck” Clark (Drums) and Jamie Levinson (Drums).
With a certain joie de vive, playfulness and charm, White Rabbits thematically evoke the more decadent and bygone era of days spent on the green, old cinema. The band even showcases the occasional group chant best exampled on “Kid On My Shoulders”, as it thunders to its conclusion. The band also has a keen ear for the occasional cover song, and the old instrument switcheroo on stage. Anyone who has had the chance to see White Rabbits live will be able to appreciate first hand the joy and effervescence that they exude on stage. True camaraderie in fact. Their sets have gained the band a large and growing audience and led them to share bills with Peter Bjorn & John, The Walkmen, Richard Swift and others.
