It was nice to finally see MoB favorites Frightened Rabbit, having missed them recently at the High Noon Saloon. Good weather parlayed quite an audience for the guys from Scotland, who sounded just as good live as they do on record. Speaking of record, if you’ve held out on picking up a copy of their fantastic new record The Midnight Organ Fight, don’t wait any longer. You also won’t want to miss its predecessor, Sing The Greys, whose songs I was elated made their way into last night’s set as well.
Lets hear from the old and new fans. For those of you that made their High Noon set, did the change of venue do anything for ya? What about first time listeners, were you impressed? Non-Madison readers, where have you seen Frightened Rabbit?

I’m going to see them on June 24 in Phoenix with Oxford Collapse. Can’t wait. The Midnight Organ Fight is definitely tops of the year for me.
