Contest: Win Tickets to see Frightened Rabbit with Plants and Animals (San Diego)

By now you probably understand the sheer awesomeness that is Frightened Rabbit, so allow us to sing the praises of another excellent band: Canada’s Plants and Animals.

The group just released its second LP, La La Land, in April, and the album’s balance of mellowness and electric fuzz is the perfect companion to Frightened Rabbit’s whisky-soaked Scottish blues. Plants and Animals’ first LP, Parc Avenue, was shortlisted for the 2008 Polaris Music Prize and nominated for two Juno Awards in 2009. (And speaking of Juno, they share a hometown — Halifax, Nova Scotia — with Ellen Page.) For a sample of the band’s sound, check out the song “The Mama Papa” (MP3).

We’re offering two tickets to see Frightened Rabbit and Plants and Animals at San Diego’s House of Blues on 10/14. To enter the contest, just comment below, and include your email address in the form (your email won’t be visible to the public). The winner will be chosen at random on October 12, 2010.
