FRIGHTENED Rabbit have recorded new music for the first time since the death of frontman Scott Hutchison.
The group have returned to the recording studio for the Edinburgh Fringe play Square Go's soundtrack.
Band member Simon Swimmer has also written the songs for another play titled After the Cuts.
Taking to Instagram to announce the news, the band wrote: “We’ve written and recorded the soundtrack for @TheGaryMcNair and @kieran_hurley new play “Square Go” which premieres at the #edinburghfringe next month at @Summerhallery.
“It’s been a well timed excuse to get back in the studio together, and it’s been a lot of fun working with the rest of the team. Also, there’s some cowbell in it…ticket link in our bio.
“@simonswimmer has also written the music for ‘After the Cuts’, showing at Summerhall throughout August – ticket link in his bio.”
The band, including the 36-year-old's brother Grant, were devastated at the loss of Scott in May.
A festival due to be held by the band in June was cancelled while they took time to re-group.
