Watch: Frightened Rabbit perform a stripped down version of 'State Hospital'

An exclusive Frightened Rabbit live session track to start your week...

So that is DiS-favourites Frightened Rabbit (well, just Scott actually) doing an acoustic performance of the track ‘State Hospital’ from The State Hospital EP, which is out on 24th Sept.
