Bio:

.. .... .. The Rabbit Press is a young independent arts and culture publication started by a group of inspired yet frustrated Hillsboro Village regulars just over two years ago. The magazine has been steadily a bi-annual since it’s conception in 2007 and has been funded in part by local advertisement and in part by its large release events that have made it ever so popular amongst the young and in-the-know of Nashville. After five issues and release events which have grown from a quiet night at Fido into large 700-800 person underbelly gatherings in miscellaneous warehouses around town; the crew at The Rabbit Press are emerging from their secretive “off the beaten path” gatherings and launching their sixth issue at The Cannery Ballroom on the eleventh of September, 2009.

All Rabbit Release Events in the past have been highlighted with a wide array of live local music and an outstanding local arts presence. “The idea has always been to turn an empty space into a music venue and an art gallery”, says a Rabbit spokesperson. The Rabbit Press strives for diversity in their crowd and prides themselves on drawing in a large cross-section of the Nashville creative community. This go round will feature the music of:

Madi Diaz

Turbo Fruits

Non-Commissioned Officers

Darla Farmer

The Silver Seas

Since the Cannery Ballroom is already a music venue of sorts, you can expect a lot of extra perks in the art department. Visual Artists will include:

Brandon Morgan

Kelly Bonnadies

Casey Pierce

David Hellams

Jordan Jaquess

Sarah Estes/Alicia Waters

And more…

There will also be a drag show, as well as some possible clothing designers and local food vendors. The Rabbit Press is also planning on launching a line of merchandise including hand screen-printed t-shirts, necklaces, handbags, and more at this event.

Doors open at 7pm and the event will go until late. After the music, expect the soul filled dance tunes as spun by Electric Western (hosts of the famous Monday night dance parties at the 5 spot). The event is $10.
