SELECTED PRESS QUOTES ABOUT ‘FRENCH FOR RABBITS’ RELEASES

“Every song here is beautifully written and immaculately constructed… the album is faultless”
Tony Stamp, RNZ - The Sampler (RNZ Top Albums Of 2021)

“Further refining their melodic pop and exploratory electronic sensibilities into a quietly magical, emotionally transporting sound that's all their own” Undertheradar.co.nz

“Folktronica five-piece French For Rabbits seduce, puzzle and charm”
The New Zealand Listener

“French For Rabbits have created a space between psych-folk and dream-pop, and they occupy it with quiet assurance and this collection of repeat-play songs and lyrics which stand a close reading.”
Graham Reid, elsewhere.co.nz

“their music’s beating heart is often shrouded by atmospherics and mystique, and they seem to operate under the rightful assumption that a well-placed whisper can be as powerful as dramatically belting it out.” Stereogum

“lovely & poignant” — Gorilla vs Bear
