Lowertown finally caught their breath. Over the past few years, the New York-based duo of Olivia Osby and Avsha Weinberg had been teetering on the brink. From constant touring and a split from their label to creative frustrations and an unhealthy dependence on one another, their artistic partnership—and, more importantly, their friendship—were on shaky ground, especially since these experiences were shaped by the disorienting intensity of their late teens and early 20s. It became clear that the two needed to return to their roots. 
Inspired by the conceptual creativity of bands like Gorillaz and Fugazi’s emphasis on the communal concert experience, Lowertown’s new album, aptly titled *Ugly Duckling Union*, is the conceptual world of Dale, the duckling protagonist, and his companions as they attempt to band together to defeat LBH, a tyrannical media corporation bent on dividing and isolating people in its quest for control.

The five-piece band 1000 Rabbits is an offbeat art-pop ensemble that tells stories through human sounds, both intimate and extroverted. Grounded by a playful bass synthesizer, expressive vocal lines weave through a colorful tapestry of violin, guitar, and drums. Let go of your self-consciousness and move your body.
