Nobunny
The often amorous, and occasionally frightening NOBUNNY (one word, all caps) has been captivating audiences of dedicated fans and new believers since Easter 2001 (the day Joey Ramone died). Born in the desert outside of Tucson AZ, Nobunny started as an animal Elvis impersonator before deciding to try out his hand at songwriting. The raucous rabbit's music is a intoxicating concoction of all the rights and wrongs that make up the heart and the soul of real rock n roll. Songs that sound as though they were written at the Brill building by a punk rock mutant back from the future. Some batshit brilliant bullshit. NOBUNNY stayed deep underground for his first 6 years doing DIY solo tours, burning limited CDRs, and building a dedicated group of fans across the USA. NOBUNNY shows were purported to include a dizzying act that often featured nudity, dancing, chaos, and costumes (most notably NOBUNNY's filthy rabbit mask). In 2008 NOBUNNY released his first LP titled "Love Visions" on 1234GO! Records. The album was a hit among critics, punks, and nerds alike. A modern RNR classic filled with inept production, and songs as catchy as herpes. In 2009 Burger Records released the Mixtape/LP "Raw Romance". An acoustical confessional brainstorm exploration of cassette goodness . In 2010 the rascally rabbit released a "warts n all" Live Album on Jack White's Third Man Records. The year ended with Nobunny's 2nd proper LP, "FIRST BLOOD". Released on the Memphis' Goner Records, the album is NOBUNNY's off the deep end, poptastic, psych-o masterstroke. NOBUNNY has spent most of the last 4 years touring North America, with 3 trips to Europe to boot. A licentiousness, lascivious, bon vivant who shows no signs slowing or toning it down. NOBUNNY loves you, and has made it damn near impossible not to love him back. Follow the white rabbit! -William Burros 2011 www.facebook.com/pages/NOBUNNY/67340059424 www.twitter.com/nobunnylovesyou NOBUNNY has toured with JAY REATARD, GiRLS, BLACK LIPS, THE SPITS, SMITH WESTERNS, HUNX & HIS PUNX "How does this 25-minutes of sick trash even exist?" - buddyhead.com "This is the new religion" - Plastique Pop "Visonary" - laist.com "America's favorite hard partying furball" - donewaiting.com "If you've never been hugged by a horny, drunken Muppet, you should seek him out." - Tucson Weekly "Nobunny played... he was hands down the sexiest thing we'd seen" - viceland.com "Disgusting, totally disgusting, and more than a little creepy" - Paste Magazine "Nobunny has released a rip-roaring good-times party album that comes on like the illegitimate offspring of the Archies, Joey Ramone, Hasil Adkins and Kim Fowley" - LA Times "(If) you like sweaty basements with your friends while drinking beer from the cheap 30 packs you all threw in on, then this could be your favorite album for the rest of the summer." - Racket Magazine "NoBunny is essentially a mindfuck multiplied by a clusterfuck" - Detroit Weekly "punk garage gumbo that is as attractive as it is disturbing" - Cleveland Scene "Never in my life did I think I'd fall for a gutter-brained, cartoon swipe artiste, but I have. Hard." - ZGun "There is a timelessness to Nobunny tunes, their aural aesthetic somewhere between Milk'n'Cookies and Chuck Berry" - Razorcake "Primitive-but-beautiful... Delicious hooks and Manic Power." - LA Examiner "like a high school version of Rock & Roll High School" - rollingstone.com "I believe in Nobunny. He appears to feel the rock strongly" - Rev. Norb "Nobunny shows are notorious" - Memphis Flyer "This is bubblegum fuzz, with rabble-rousing hooks and Elvis-inspired shakes." - SF Chronicle "One of the best shows I've seen all year" - "-San Antonio Current "I can't imagine anybody having Nobunny not thier thing" - kpbs.org "For sure the best record I own to jump around in your underwear and and eat pizza in bed to!" - Jay Reatard "50s and 60 pop sensibilities distorted into a brew of warped punk and power pop grooves." - Tucson Citizen "Nobunny is certainly hitting a chord that's turning ears all over into fuzzy, pink, and protruding embarrassments.... Like a pop machine spewing out a small rivulet of hits... Nobunny's ability to deliver blithesome songs with a maddened and frothy smile is simply brilliant. His bouncy and rollicking style conjures images of dirty bubbles rising over a landscape of unkempt, andinsanely catchy hooks that will have the stuffiest of the arm folding camp dancing and acting like idiots within the first couple of chords." -Brett Cross, Victim Of Time
