Биография

The world's cutest band, St. Louis-based cuddlecore trio Bunnygrunt originally comprised guitarist Matt Harnish, drummer Karen Ried, and bassist Renee Dullum, all three of whom swapped vocal duties. Formed in early 1993, the group debuted later that year with the Silly Moo label single "Criminal Boy"; a series of other 7"s followed, among them the EPs Standing Hampton and The Bunnygrunt Family Notebook. Signing to the No Life label, Bunnygrunt recorded their debut LP, 1995's Action Pants! According to rumor, when Dullum quit the band prior to the album's completion, she abruptly took all of her songs with her, accounting for the disc's brief running time and scant number of tracks. With new bassist Jen Wolfe, Bunnygrunt returned in 1998 with the superior Jen-Fi; the trio disbanded soon after, with Harnish and Ried continuing on as the See-Thrus. Bunnygrunt reunited in 2003, and the rarities collection In the Valley of Lonesome Phil appeared in 2004. Full-length Karen Hater's Club was released by Happy Happy Birthday to Me in 2005. Matt Harnish & Other Delights surfaced in 2009, and tribute album You Wanna Be Just Like Bunnygrunt came out in 2013. Vol. 4 (actually Bunnygrunt's fifth studio album) appeared in 2015. Compilation My First Bells 1993-1994 was released by Silly Moo in 2018. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
