The Work

Více o knize

The Work is a collection of lyrics and illustrations by the late Scott Hutchison, the lyricist and vocalist of Frightened Rabbit. This limited hardback edition features the band’s complete lyrics, including B-sides and rarities, along with handwritten excerpts and previously unseen illustrations by Scott. It serves as a tribute to his creativity and fulfills his vision for a book he wished to create before his passing. Readers should note that it addresses sensitive topics, including references to suicide. Grant Hutchison, Scott's brother and the band's drummer, reflects on the bittersweet experience of seeing the book come to life. He emphasizes how reading the lyrics without music reveals the stark reality of Scott's struggles while showcasing his exceptional songwriting talent. Although the release would have been different had Scott been involved, the team felt it important to celebrate his lyrics and give them the recognition they deserve. Scott believed his words were meant to be accompanied by music, yet their impact remains profound even when read alone. This book invites readers to engage deeply with the world Scott created, sharing his heartfelt expressions and soulful insights.
