Biography

Tunabunny were formed in 2008 by Brigette Herron, Scott Creney, Mary Jane Hassell and Chloe Tewksbury. Following a split single (with Hulaboy) in 2009, Tunabunny released their eponymous debut album in 2010, issued as with their subsequent records by Athens label Happy Happy Birthday to Me Records. Second album Minima Moralia was released the following year to positive reviews, including from Razorcake.[5]
