| Unbunny
is folk-rock singer and songwriter Jarid del Deo, who has
spent the last 13 years recording music under the Unbunny
(and Nervous Plants) moniker and ambling from coast to coast,
from Portsmouth, NH to Seattle, WA and back again, and then
back again (he now resides in Seattle), again, with stops
in Urbana, IL and Oakland, CA.
Unbunny has released one other album on Hidden Agenda, that
being 2004's Snow
Tires, which prompted Comes With A Smile to gush
thusly: "What distinguishes Jarid Del Deo's work
from other confessional songwriters is a pitch-perfect level
of self deprecation, an all important injection of humor which,
when coupled with his lyrical and melodic brilliance, rewards
the listener on multiple levels."
This new (Fall 2008) release, Sensory Underload,
is a cohesive and near-comprehensive new collection of Unbunny
EPs, singles, rarities and unreleased recordings spanning
the last dozen years, including the out-of-print Typist EP
originally released by Important Records in 2005. Many tracks
here appear on CD for the very first time.
