White Rabbits started out in Columbia, Missouri, in 2004 and eventually planted themselves in Brooklyn, a six-piece indie rock band with a rhythm section big enough to rattle the floorboards. Drummer Matthew Clark sat at the heart of a sound that leaned hard on rhythm, with Stephen Patterson and Adam Russell among the players in the ranks.
Their debut, Fort Nightly, came out in May 2007. The follow-up, It's Frightening, landed on TBD Records in May 2009 and sounded tighter and tenser, all taut grooves and shadowy corners. "Percussion Gun" was the one that broke through to rock radio, a song that lives up to its name, all pounding drums and clipped hooks.
Milk Famous followed in March 2012, with the band still on TBD.
