Pat The Bunny, whose real name is Pat Schneeweis, is an influential figure in the American folk punk scene, renowned for his raw, earnest lyricism and commitment to DIY ethics. He was born on March 9, 1987, and began his musical journey in Brattleboro, Vermont. Pat garnered a loyal following as the frontman of the punk band Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains, which reflected his tumultuous struggles with substance abuse and society. His music continued to evolve as he led other projects such as Wingnut Dishwashers Union and Ramshackle Glory, capturing the restless spirit of a generation in search of authentic connection and radical change.

Pat The Bunny’s later work, including "Cocoon Music," "Probably Nothing, Possibly Everything," and "The Volatile Utopian Real Estate Market," showcases a maturation in his sound and a philosophical depth to his songwriting. After declaring his retirement from music in 2016, this era reflects a more reflective and nuanced perspective on life, tackling themes of personal growth, sobriety, and anarchism with a combination of tender introspection and unflinching honesty. While Pat The Bunny has stepped back from performing and recording, his impact on the folk punk genre and his influence on countless fans and musicians remain profound, with his catalog serving as a critical touchstone for the punk community and beyond.
