Frightened Rabbit

Frightened Rabbit's live performance of 'I Wish I Was Sober' at KEXP Studios on April 19, 2016, comes after the release of their fifth studio album, 'Painting of a Panic Attack,' which dropped just a week prior, on April 8, 2016. This was a pivotal moment for the band, highlighting their artistic evolution, as the album marked a collaboration with renowned producer, Aaron Dessner of The National. The raw, emotional weight of lead singer Scott Hutchison's lyrics resonates deeply, making this performance a heartfelt experience that connects with fans. Interestingly, this live recording showcases the band's trademark blend of melancholic themes and vibrant instrumentation, a hallmark of their work that resonates with audiences. Tragically, it would also be one of their last notable performances before Hutchison's untimely passing in 2018.
