The Viewfinder: Bad Rabbits, “Dance with Me”
Despite having just wrapped up a tour to support their American Love LP, Boston’s Bad Rabbits are already dishing out new music. Last week, the band dropped the new single, “Dance with Me,” from their forthcoming LP produced by the king of new jack swing, Mr. Teddy Riley. You can read more about that project in our interview with the band . For now, here’s a brand new video for “ Dance with Me ,” featuring Clinton Sparks. The video vividly captures the party vibe of “Dance with […]
“Doin’ It” – An Interview with Bad Rabbits
Hailing from Popblerd’s homebase of Boston, MA, Bad Rabbits have been crafting their blend of r&b, funk, and rock (sprinkled with elements of hardcore) for six years. Building a reputation for their energetic live shows and gaining national recognition for their recorded output, 2013 marks a milestone for the band: the release of their first full-length LP, American Love (2013, Bad Records). What’s more, they’ve got another completed full-length LP in the can. We caught up with Bad Rabbits just before their […]
Bad Rabbits, American Love: Album Review
I really wanted to like this album. I first came across Bad Rabbits when I witnessed the spectacle that is their live show in Worcester at Skatefest in 2010 and downloaded the Stick Up Kids EP soon after (From a download card I received from the band!). From first listen, they came off as the second coming of Morris Day and The Time. The EP delivered as did the band especially the energy they exuded on stage. It was infectious […]

Boston Music Alert: Bad Rabbits Blow The Roof Off; Marc Pinansky Shows His Ass
It’s been a pretty solid week for some of my favorite local acts. Each of them has been profiled on Popblerd before-and if you haven’t given these folks a listen yet, you definitely need to correct that! Last Friday, I was fortunate enough to catch Bad Rabbits at a wild, sold out Brighton Music Hall show. There’s been a solid buzz around these guys for a while now, their album Stick Up Kids has been in heavy rotation at Blerd HQ ever […]
I Read AP’s “100 Bands You Need To Know In 2012” So You Don’t Have To.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year again. No, not Christmas! It’s Alternative Press’ annual “100 Bands You Need To Know In ____” issue and once again, you have all dodged a bullet by letting me read and re-read and re-read this issue to cull together the very best of the so-called “best”. Anyway, here’s who I thought were the standouts for 2012: Kerretta: Who the hell are these guys and how the hell did I not know about […]
Who the Hell Are…Bad Rabbits?
If you’re local to New England, then you probably don’t need me to tell you who Bad Rabbits are (unless you’re one of those easily confused people who’s confusing them with White Rabbits…or Frightened Rabbit…or Eddie Rabbitt…). They’re a funk/rock behemoth ’round these parts. Those of you who are not familiar, however–get ready to have your eardrums penetrated by some dope sounds. These guys have been working on their debut album for quite some time, under the guidance of the legendary Teddy […]
I read AP’s “100 Bands You Need To Know in 2011” so you don’t have to.
You’re welcome. I do not buy a lot of magazines anymore. All of my music news I can usually get from the interwebs and I’m totally fine with that. I was out and about the other day and saw the latest issue of AP which was the annual “100 bands you need to know in 2011” and like a sucker, I bought it. At the very least, this issue is good for laugh and I get to make myself feel […]
