Rock and roll. |

Q3 Could you tell us how did you meet with your band members?
I've known Alex since I was about 8 yrs. old. I met the rest of the guys in a Columbia, MO while I was working there and going to shows. We formed the band there and moved to NYC. Jamie Levinson was added during the recording of the album and shortly afterwards, moved to NY.
Q4 What can you tell us about the album Fort Nighty?
Yeah. It's our first full-length record. It was released on Say Hey Records. We've been touring in support of it for nearly a year now.
Q5 Can you describe your song writing process?
Yeah. We all can play multiple instruments. So, one of us will usually bring a melody, a progression, or a rhythm to the table and the rest of us will get behind instruments and try to construct a cohesive song that we all feel happy with. It's a democratic process. |

The Plot
-Fort Nightly-

|
| Lead by dual vocalists, Greg Roberts (Guitar / Vox) and Steve Patterson (Piano / Vox), the 6 piece is rounded out by Alex Even (Guitar / Vox), Adam Russell (Bass), Matt "The Duck" Clark (Drums) and Jamie Levinson (Drums). With a certain joie de vive, playfulness and charm White Rabbits thematically evoke the more decadent and bygone era of days spent on the green, old cinemas "Tourist Trap", tragic mothers "Navy Wives", and restrained, but no less awkward domestic disputes, with the first single, "The Plot." White Rabbits have succeeded in realizing a tremendously vibrant and creative debut record with Fort Nightly. |
