White Rabbits and Glass Ghosts at Turner Hall Ballroom
With surf guitars, apocalyptic vocals, and tropicalia flourishes, White Rabbits’ 2007 debut, Fort Nightly, hit New York indie-rock’s sweet spot more surely than any act since The Walkmen or even The Strokes. Where The Walkmen wander toward barrelhouse blues, however, White Rabbits double up on singers and drummers and add hints of calypso and ska. They’re also always up for rock dramatics, as evidenced by It’s Frightening, the Britt Daniel-produced bête noire that marks the Rabbits’ rapid ascension to major players.
