French for Rabbits & Terrible Sons team up for South Island Autumn Tour
Wellington’s ethereal dream-pop gems French for Rabbits are pairing up with Terrible Sons for a weekend away in the South Island. They will present their dreamy, perfectly-paired music to lucky audiences in Nelson, Blenheim and Onekaka, before French for Rabbits head off to perform at Wanaka’s Festival of Colour.
French for Rabbits released a handful of singles in 2020 – including the soaring chamber pop of The Dark Arts in December which is the first single from their forthcoming album (due out later in 2021). Always writing new material, there will likely be a new song or two, alongside favourites from their collection of previous releases.
Terrible Sons released their much anticipated EP Mass in February. Having racked up over 18 million streams on previous singles, it may come as a surprise that the Nettwerk-signed duo from Christchurch have never toured. The duo consists of LA Mitchell (Fly My Pretties) and Matt Barus (Dukes).
