Indie rock band Rabbit! today announced a U.S. tour to promote its new full-length album titled “Go For It,” releasing August 2. The “Rabbit!’s Music Stand” cross-country tour will span 45 cities in 48 days, from July 6 to August 20. The tour will also set out to raise awareness about the continuuing arts and music funds-cutting in schools by promoting community programs that are finding alternative solutions from Florida all the way to California. Rabbit!’s Music Stand will include live performances, interviews and documentary-style video as the band seeks to educate themselves and others about this growing concern. In addition to promoting their new album “Go For It,” Rabbit! will be visiting arts & music programs across the U.S., to shine a light on the “unsung heroes” who are battling cuts in arts education.
Rabbit!‘s song “Light Up the Night” is currently featured in Crayola’s commercial for glow-in-the-dark chalk.
“We want to use this summer tour as a vehicle to shine a little light on those individuals that, despite the economic circumstances, are still finding a way to provide a creative education and outlet for our nation's youth", said band co-founder Ashton Allen.

Indie rock band Rabbit!, of Mount Dora, Florida, will tour the U.S. in a grassroots effort to spread awareness, uncover hidden realities, and celebrate the modern-day heroes of our nation’s arts & music education system or lack thereof. In response to the progressively deteriorating state of arts education program funding in America’s public schools system, the tour will set out to raise awareness through live music performance while shedding light on the community issues resulting from the recent or impending discontinuation of art-related academia. Rabbit!s Music Stand will be a 48 day fully-documented, interactive experience with live music performances by Rabbit!, interviews, and humble service as a part of each local stop, making for a 360-degree conservation & awareness effort felt nationwide.
