Losing Scott to depression and ultimately suicide is something I will never comprehend. Even reading back that sentence still seems unreal in a way. Look after yourself and when you can’t, let others look after you because there’s always someone who cares #SuicidePreventionDay Gx.

We are worried about Scott, who has been missing for a little while now. He may be in a fragile state and may not be making the best decisions for himself right now. Please could Scott or anyone with any information on his whereabouts please contact Police Scotland (101).

We have no news to report on Scott’s whereabouts this morning. Your support so far has been incredible and all we ask is you keep him in your thoughts, keep an eye out and keep sharing his picture online. Thanks for everything. Your kindness and positivity is keeping us going G.

Scott was a fucking genius. It’s weird being on this side of the record for probably the first time in my life. Listening all the way through and trying to just take it in. What a songwriter. The Midnight Organ Fight was his record.

This is what we think Scott would want people to see and say on his birthday. Spread it far and wide and remember it applies to how you treat yourself and not just others. Happy Birthday Scott. We miss you. G, A, B & S x

Matt Haig hitting the nail on the head as usual. It’s important not to define people by the way they died. Scott died from depression. I get that there’s more of a story but you wouldn’t define a cancer victim’s life by what happened at the end so why suicide?.

What a lovely idea. A group of folks have got together to raise money to put a bench somewhere in Glasgow in memory of Scott. Any extra money will go to a charity or other projects in his name x
Scott’s Bench, a place to meet, sing, gather your thoughts and celebrate the amazing love for Scott. Have a read, retweet, share or help out however you can❤️ @FRabbits #ScottsBench

Try and go a whole day without listening to a song that was sung by a black artist, was produced by a black artist, features a black artist or was inspired by a black artist. Your day will be silent and worse off for trying. #blacklivesmatter.

And so it has arrived. 2023. And just like that our fourth album, Pedestrian Verse turns 10 years old. This has always been the album we were most proud of as a band. It was written collectively and I think was the best and most mature example of Scott’s songwriting.

Still can’t believe this is happening. Scott would find this whole thing hilarious! Watching him play at the opening of the new stand at Tynecastle Park was a great moment. Watching his bafflement at Gary Locke chatting to our table before the game was almost better.
Maybe the most amazing @_Bands_FC thing ever. Heart of Midlothian (@JamTarts) players will run out in our @FRabbits shirts at their Scottish Cup semi final again @HibernianFC on Saturday. The club will then auction the shirts to raise funds for @tinychanges

Hello everyone.In 2017 we were approached by filmmaker William Miller about making a documentary about Frightened Rabbit, and specifically The Midnight Organ Fight, with the plan of releasing something during the ten year anniversary celebrations in 2018. Obviously this plan.

This is fucking important. Apparently it’s good practice to avoid politics on here but it’s also good to avoid letting people die. You can do this by thinking again about who you vote for next time. #lovethenhs #NHSheroes.
Spoke to my beautiful friend last night - a lung doctor in the nhs. She said, while its a lovely gesture, instead of just clapping please could you just never ever vote conservative again.
