    We were waiting for One Dark Morning, and time just passed and passed until David stepped sideways and released Scared Rabbit. We hadn't really heard these songs demoed and we'd scarcely heard them live, but David said that it was the best of what he'd been working on in the studio and so out they came. For folks who have been listening to David's music over the years, this album is at once familiar and refreshing. The same strong melodies, extended phrases, the penchant for multiples of three, the often bittersweet sum product of word and music: these are all there. But there is an immediacy to this EP that is both fresh and a clear progression from past recordings. The production is crisp ( even when lush ), and the songs cover a broad sweep of the pop music cannon. We've seen David visit a lot of these sounds in his other work and his mastery shows. Much of the album feels as if the differing musical grain of _Over There Jean Pierre_ and _Here comes a Bright Light_ have been reconciled at some level. The real treat for me, though, is _End of the Year_. I don't think that I've ever heard David play raw and loose, like Ronnie Lane and Small Faces, rythmically on but so very, very loose. We're still waiting for _One Dark Morning_, but with Scared Rabbit rolling over and over in my head, how light the night.

    This is really a beautiful ep, I have listened and listened since i received it, and am totally blown away by the beautiful and thought provoking lyrics and arragements. Well done David, your music is inspirational.

  • Excellent, better than the last!
