Music Video: Thomas Stajcer Rises Up Against Our Robot Overlords on ‘Who Will Listen To Country Music When Trucks Drive Themselves?’

Single: The Summer Rabbit Prepare for Halloween with ‘Howl into the Night’

The return of The Summer Rabbit just before Halloween is not coincidental. “Howl into the Night” is the Halifax-based trio’s first new track in two years, and in the fine tradition of getting the hairs on the back of our necks trussed up for the season, the song was inspired by eerie dreams and “the ever-approaching fear of the unknown.” Continue reading Single: The Summer Rabbit Prepare for Halloween with ‘Howl into the Night’
