Frightened Rabbit Announces 2013 Spring Tour Dates and Debuts New Video

Scottish rock band Frightened Rabbits will be touring North America this coming spring in support of their upcoming album, Pedestrian Verse (dropping on February 5, 2013 in the US). The group just revealed their plans for 2013, kicking off the North American tour on March 8th at Seattle’s Showbox at the Market. The tour will conclude on April 13, 2013 in Dallas.
 
Frightened Rabbit also just revealed the new video for their single, “The Woodpile.” “The Woodpile” is off of Pedestrian Verse, the group’s fourth studio album.
 

 
Discussing the new album, singer Scott Hutchison said, “The title is taken from a lyric in ‘State Hospital.’ I felt it was a nicely faceted title, with enough layered meaning to remain open to interpretation. Above all though, it was a gauntlet I threw down for myself. If you call your album Pedestrian Verse, you can’t settle for any old lyric. It forced me to better myself. In fact, I think we all stepped up on this album and I believe that our producer Leo Abrahams had a major role in that step. He threw our music into areas we had not previously imagined. More than any other record we’ve done this has been a genuine journey of discovery into new ways of working in order to develop and fully realize each of the songs. As a result, I think ‘Pedestrian Verse’ is the strongest and most interesting record we’ve made to date.”
