Pat The Bunny; born Patrick Schneeweis in 1987, is an American retired musician. He has been the front man of notable anarcho-punk groups Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains, Wingnut Dishwashers Union, and Ramshackle Glory. Originally based out of Brattleboro, Vermont, he now lives in Tucson, Arizona.
Schneeweis was born in Brattleboro, Vermont. He has been playing music with his younger brother, Michael, for a long time. In 2009 he checked himself into rehab for drug addiction, he stated on his website that he was not sure if he would continue with music after rehab. Once out of rehab, he moved to Tucson, Arizona and formed a new band. In February 2016 he announced that he was at least temporarily retiring from music, stating that the ideologies of punk rock and anarchism no longer matched his own. He will eventually be donating the proceeds of his solo work and band's releases through social media music platform Bandcamp to charitable organizations supporting music education.
Pat's first major recording project. The first demo was primarily solo, being just acoustic guitar played atop of programmed drums. The group quickly expanded and became entirely acoustic. Johnny Hobo toured extensively during their career, often Pat would be the only touring member. Alcohol, drug use, homelessness, politics, suicide, and the punk scene were common themes in Johnny Hobo songs. They released four EPs, two splits, a live album, and two compilations before disbanding.
Michael Jordan Touchdown Pass is a solo recording project of Pat's younger brother, Michael, which began when he was 15 or 16. Pat played bass and back-up vocals during live shows. Michael has played with Ramshackle Glory live on at least one occasion.
With the ending of Johnny Hobo, Pat continued writing songs in a similar vein and formed Wingnut Dishwashers Union. Similar to Johnny Hobo, Wingnut Dishwashers Union toured constantly, often just with Pat. In contrast to Johnny Hobo, many songs used electric rather than acoustic guitar. They released three full-length albums, two splits, and a compilation during their two-year career, in addition to a solo rendition of their debut album by Pat. Wingnut Dishwashers Union broke up when Pat entered rehab at the end of 2009.
"The Green Mountain State's second-best rap crew, shattering all preconceptions and slanderous chatter, a hot buttery corn muffin of rhyme". A humorous hip-hop side-project formed by Pat and several friends.
