Watch Frightened Rabbit perform ‘Get Out‘ on Stephen Colbert and rock it

Scottish indie band Frightened Rabbit gave a stellar performance of their new single ‘Get Out‘ on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night. ‘Get Out‘ is from the band’s fifth studio album — Painting of a Panic Attack — due to be released next week.

And what I have always loved about this band, besides their very cool music, is that their name came from lead singer Scott Hutchinson, whose mother used to call him Frightened Rabbit when he was a kid because he was so painfully shy

Talk about changing a negative into a positive, eh?

Watch Frightened Rabbit on Stephen Colbert in the video below. And pick up their upcoming new album now.

The band are also kicking off a U.S. tour in April in support of the album. Here are their tour dates as of now.
