frightened_rabbitScottish indie-rockers Frightened Rabbit have a single called “Swim Until You Can’t See Land” that’s been floating around the internet over the last few days.  This tune is being offered as a sneak preview of the band’s upcoming album to be released in March of 2010.  The band’s label, Fat Cat Records, is also streaming new track “Fun Stuff”.  We like ’em both.

OsMutantes

Date 10/18/09
Location La Zona Rosa
Doors 8pm
Tickets $27 from Gettix

So how does a band take a break for close to 30 years and then make a comeback with a tour and brand new album?  Who knows.  I guess people really did like the 60s that much.  If you’re one of those 60s lovers, head down to La Zona Rosa on Sunday night for a set by Brazilian psych-rockers Os Mutantes.  Opening support will provided by Deleon.
