New Orleans. 2003-5. Rabbit Hatch started as a duo in 2004, and then later as a full on band in the New Orleans music scene. Featuring Gina Phillips and PJ Christie splitting the songwriting, RH brought a little bit of the Ohio River Valley to the swampy marshes of Looziana. Gina Phillips grew up dirt poor in Richmond Kentucky...a quirky Appalachian upbringing that has provided her art and music and endless supply of tragicomic imagery. Though she lives in the Lower Ninth Ward, she still wakes up to the sound of the rooster crowing. She sings, plays guitar and harmonica. PJ Christie hails from the progressive metropolis of Indianapolis, Indiana, home of John Hiatt and Prozac. After an early period of delinquent activity, he has settled into a lifetime of music via Chicago Blues, Country, Rock and Reggae. He is in Rabbit Hatch and sings and plays.
