Frightened Rabbit

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Thirty years ago, Bob Dylan set the standard for breakup albums with his “Blood on the Tracks.” Last year, Kanye West topped the charts with his weeper “808s and Heartbreak.” Now comes the band Frightened Rabbit, straight outta Scotland...and straight outta’ a relationship, apparently. They join us to talk about the album “The Midnight Organ Fight” and to perform live in the studio.
