Artist Spotlight: Bad Rabbits

Starting off your Thursday with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we keep it local in Boston and uncover the dynamic and groovy sounds of Bad Rabbits. The band consists of Dua Boakye on vocals, Sheel Davé on drums, Salim Akram on guitar, Graham Masser on bass, and Santi Araujo on guitar. The band has an eclectic, groove infected sound similar to that of Sly and The Family Stone mixed in with a contemporary rock aesthetic that is unlike any other musical combo out there today, and have a trademarked sound that fans can easily identify with. I've had the pleasure of seeing these guys perform in the past, and they have an indelible and authentic stage presence to them that I can't adequately compare to any other act in the scene today, and are a band that can't possibly be confined to one genre and have that ability to dabble in other genres that allows them to cater to audiences outside their musical radar, and they definitely brought with them the ability to dance and have fun, something which translates well with the listening audience who joins together with the band in the spirit of dance to let loose and have a little fun in the process. A terrific local band that is definitely well on their way to musical stardom. Some tracks for you to check out for your listening pleasure include "We Can Roll" and "Can't Fool Me".

For more information on the guys in Bad Rabbits, head on over to their Facebook page right here and see what all the fuss is about related to these collective gentlemen. You can follow them on Twitter as well over here and find out when they'll be performing in the Boston area again sometime soon.
