The Work is a book of lyrics and illustrations by the late Scott
Hutchison, lyricist, vocalist and songwriter of Frightened Rabbit.
This paperback follows the sold-out limited hardback edition and
presents the band's complete lyrics (including B-sides and
rarities) with handwritten excerpts by Scott, alongside his
illustrations. The book is meant both as a celebration of and
tribute to Scott's unbridled creativity. It aims to fulfil his
wishes by being the book that he wanted to create and had spoken of
creating before his death. Readers are advised that The Work
includes content about topics that some may find upsetting,
including references to suicide. "Seeing this book come to life has
been something of a bittersweet experience. Reading the lyrics
without music really brings home the stark reality of what Scott
was going through and at the same time highlights the talent of
someone who I consider to be one of the best songwriters in the
world. This would've been a different release had Scott been
involved but we all felt it was important that his lyrics be
celebrated and given the spotlight they deserve. As Scott has said,
these words were always meant to be accompanied by music, but the
impact of digesting them without is no less great. Pick up this
book of words, hold it, share it and immerse yourself in the world
Scott created by opening not only his heart but his whole soul to
the world." Grant Hutchison (Scott's brother and drummer of
Frightened Rabbit)
