"Go see Bad Rabbits. Just do it. Thank us later." - Billboard
"The futuristic R&B band deliver a funk-fueled ballad [with 'Fall in Love'] - USA TODAY
"...[Doin' It is] a vibrant, horn-blasting, dirty bass funk-popping blast of throwback R&B charm..." - MTV Buzzworthy
"Bad Rabbits have put together a bruiser of a record built on dirty grooves and nasty habits. Vocalist Fredua "Dua" Boakye growls with hard rock grit on "We Can Roll" but earns his keep with a piercing falsetto straight out of the Prince playbook. His approach is high-flying, shooting straight for the rafters." - Boston Globe
"...fans of the funk and the rock don't want to miss these new jack R&B, rock 'n' roll swingers..." - WXPN The Key
The post-R&B musical force known as Bad Rabbits will perform on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on May 31st. Tune in to CBS at 12:35pm ET/PT. The announcement comes hot on the heels of the band's national TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last week, where they blew the roof off with three incredible performances. Check it out: PRESS HERE<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy-ZNJWS3r0> for "Can't Fool Me." PRESS HERE<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIc1Dd7lofo> for "We Can Roll." PRESS HERE<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ii4N1-9sEl4> for "Fall In Love."
In other exciting news, the band's debut album American Love (Bad Records in conjunction with Karmaloop Music) recently sailed into the #1 spot on the iTunes R&B Chart and Top 10 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart, with artists such as Swizz Beatz, Kendrick Lamar, Patrick Stump, Travie McCoy, Pharrel Williams, Jojo and Bun B giving the band love on Twitter.
On May 25th, they return to their hometown of Boston for a performance at the Boston Calling Music Festival. Catch Bad Rabbits on the road this summer during their U.S. headlining tour, beginning July 9th.
With praise from the likes of USA Today, Alternative Press, Vice, Vibe and MTV Buzzworthy, Bad Rabbits have been making a name for themselves as one of the most compelling and eclectic groups to emerge on the music scene. Their sound is sexy, smooth and soulful, fusing together classic '90's R&B, post-rock, funk, punk and metal influences to create a futuristic new jack swing. Frontman Dua has a chill-inducing falsetto and textured vocals that claim the space somewhere between Sly Stone and Prince, adding an otherworldly shine to Bad Rabbits that is unmatched.
