Six Degrees Of Kevin Bacon: Bunny Come
Nicole Bettencourt Coelho
Here’s another band I like, but this one’s not signed to a label yet (At least, I don’t think they are. I don’t fact check. Sue me.). Even though their self-titled 3 song EP is on itunes (where I bought it), it’s available for free download on their my______ address here, along with 2 more tunes (Crap!!! I’m always the last to know).

The music style is electronic and appropriately… ahem… bouncy. Pun intended. The music’s kinetic. If I had to compare it to that of another band I’d have to point to Garbage when they did their 2.0 Album… If they maybe had Butterfly Boucher as a singer. The song “Pill’s Week” is especially Garbage-like. Not saying ‘derivitive’, but if I had to pick a band whose sound they remind me of, it would be that one.
Whoever produced the EP managed to put together a very p0lished, slick sounding trio of songs. As far as I know, they produced it themselves.

The lyrics are light even if a little sardonic (hey, that’s a word I never use!). Lead singer Harmony Boucher is the sister of one of my favorite singer/songwriters Butterfly Boucher , which is how I found this band. She sounds almost just like her sister, which would explain why I like her voice so much. It’s the genes I guess. I’m not sure if Harmony wrote the lyrics or the band or someone else (I can only assume), but Bunny Come’s lyrics aren’t nearly as optimistic as her sister’s but still sound cheerful enough.
“After The K” features an outstanding video by Husayn Gertse that takes the viewer back to the days of the Atari 2600. I feel like I need a joystick in my hands while watching this (insert own inappropriate ‘joystick’ joke here ____________).Here’s the video:
When I was thinking of how I came across this band, the Kevin Bacon thing… Well, hence the blog post title…
Bunny Come’s lead singer is harmonic Harmony Boucher.
Harmony is the sister of the bubbly Butterfly Boucher.
Butterfly covered “Changes” with original artist, pop living legend David Bowie.
The Man Who Fell To Earth was, of course, in Labyrinth with the lovely Jennifer Connelly.
Connelly was in “A Beautiful Mind” with Ed ‘The Man’ Harris.
Harris was in Apollo 13 with the force of nature that is Clint Howard… Oh. Right. And half of The Bacon Bothers; prolific actor Kevin Bacon.
Thankyaveruhmuch. I knew I could get there.
Anyway, check out Bunny Come! They’re on the inter-tube in all of the places you would expect to find them and as I said, their EP is available on iTunes.
