follows: NEW YORK, Feb. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- For the second
year in a row, Playboy's Rock the Rabbit program will fuse rock,
hip-hop, art and fashion in conjunction with the magazine's annual
March music issue (on newsstands and at
http://www.playboydigital.com/ Friday, February 8). This year Jack
Daniel's is sponsoring the program, and will host a late night
party at SXSW in Austin celebrating the project. Playboy asked
twenty musicians, from icon Iggy Pop to buzzworthy Jamie T, to
design a custom line of limited edition t-shirts and place their
own personal stamp on the Rabbit Head brand and logo. Six of the
artists asked to participate in this project are featured in a
fashion pictorial shot by legendary shutterbug Mick Rock in
Playboy's March issue, while the other artists will appear online
at http://www.rocktherabbit.com/. The artists range from up and
coming rockers to established hip-hop musicians. Playboy will offer
the limited edition Rock the Rabbit custom designed T-shirt line to
consumers at select Bloomingdales nationwide as well as online at
http://www.shopthebunny.com/, with other retail partners announced
in the future. The original prototype tees will be auctioned off
with proceeds going to Rock the Vote (http://www.rockthevote.org/.)
