Bunnygrunt - Matt Harnish and Other Delights

2009 album from the reunited Indie band. Bursting into existence during the brief-lived Great Indie Pop Scare of the mid-1990 's, Bunnygrunt garnered an unlikely amount of success for a band that never managed to plan any further ahead than their next tour. Over their initial five year run, the St. Louis band toured the entire USA a half-dozen times, released two great albums, a million singles and compilation tracks, and then blew out in a blaze of glory with a whirlwind tour of Japan. After pursuing other interests for a few years, main Grunters Karen Ried and Matt Harnish decided to dust off the Bunnygrunt brand name for another go around. An appearance at the Athens Popfest cemented their return to activity, but also marked a broadening in their sound. While the jangling guitars and harmony-filled choruses of '90 's Indie Pop remain, Bunnygrunt's solid Midwestern Classic Rock upbringing is equally represented, as is their love of '70 's Power Pop and '60 's Nuggets fuzz. This isn't music for blogs, this is shout along live, loud, in the joyful moment Rock 'n' Roll.
