Drawing influence from the wet, windblown landscapes of coastal New Zealand, French for Rabbits hail from the remote natural setting
of Waikuku Beach, in NZ’s South Island. Songwriter and vocalist Brooke Singer expresses intimate narratives against the cast of the damp
colonial cold; her voice delicately steeled against the eerie instrumentation of her bandmates. It’s a weather-beaten dreamscape, nostalgic
for warmth and hopefully lilting towards sunnier climes.
Their debut EP Claimed by the Sea saw French for Rabbits welcomed for their dream-cast folk in their native New Zealand. A PLAN
remix of the EP’s title track caused the band to shift their focus towards an international realm, packing their bags to tour extensively
through Europe and the UK in 2013 (including the Garden Party, Wilderness Festival and The Great Escape).
