Bad Rabbits: The funkiest band you never heard of is playing Union Transfer in August

Boston’s Bad Rabbits are coming to town and playing Union Transfer on Saturday, August 10th. Tickets go on sale this Friday, May 10th at Noon. Fans of the funk and the rock don’t want to miss these New Jack R&B, rock and roll swingers who release a new album, American Love, next week. Since the band’s debut in 2009 with their Stick Up Kids EP (download it for free here), the five piece have toured with the likes of Mos Def, the Deftones, Foxy Shazam, Passion Pit and Wu-Tang and have released a handful of excellent covers of songs by Smashing Pumpkins, The-Dream, and Michael Jackson. Sample some of their tunes below.
