What Your Soul Sings... 

"The cling and a clang
Is the metal in my head when I walk
I hear a sort of, this tinging noise
Cling clang
The cling clang
So many things happen while walking
The metal in my head clangs and clings as I walk
Freaks my balance out
So the natural thought
Is just clogged up
Totally clogged up
So we need to unplug these dams
And make the natural flow
It sort of freaks me out
We need to unplug the dams
You cannot stop the natural flow of thought
With a cling and a clang"

Singer/Songwriter, Russ Rogers has been actively writing, performing and recording rock/pop/soul music for the last 20 years. His guitar driven neo-soul awash in melancholic hooks, sets a dark yet hopeful tone. Current bands are A New Way to Live Forever http://soundcloud.com/anewwaytoliveforever, and DRTY LVRS http://soundcloud.com/drtylvrs. Notable tenure as Singer/Bassist and songwriter  for The Numb Ones (Cleopatra Records) has given Russ national recognition for his song craft, a trait he has since refined in earnest. Regular solo performances offer the perfect isolated venue for Russ’ overflow of creative output.

I also sing and play bass as "Chason" in DRTY LVRS, a dark wave electro band. http://drtylvrs.com - http://facebook.com/drtylvrs - http://soundcloud.com/drtylvrs

I've been doing this stuff for a long time, and tend to write a lot, so it's quite good for my psyche to have soundcloud as a vehicle for my output. Basically all of the songs I upload here were, for better or worse, written, played/programmed, recorded, and mixed by me. Drums & synths are mostly programmed, instruments are all played, and vocals are just fun :)

Hope you dig some of the tunes.

You can't touch music, but music can touch you.

"Scandi-rock perfection". Dots And Dashes

"It's indie rock goodness, draped in beautiful guitars that shimmers and falls around your ears like rain". Sirens of Decay

"Driving energy, effortlessly layered guitars and just the right amount of experimental sound choices mean that that the music they’re making is just incredibly satisfying to listen to. Indie rock as a genre is overflowing with average bands. So why waste your time? Listen to Great Hare instead." Dani Charlton, Amazing Radio

"Great Hare brings a soft voice, a powerful guitar, so hint of old fashioned taste and they managed to mix it all together and create a song that is both powerful and relaxing"
Wolf In A Suit

"...an outstanding monolith of melodramatic dream-pop".
Dots And Dashes

"It's damn near impossible not to like "Rock n Roll Dreams".
Don't Need No Melody

“Only the Birds,” is a soft, and sweet melody, perfect for snuggling with your lover on a rainy day".
Girl Underground Music

"I’ve heard a couple of songs from this band, and although they’re unsigned at the moment, I don’t expect that to be the case for very long." This Is That Song

"The audience is taken on a floating ride of shimmery summer haze as the guitars weave their way across the room..."
Emerging Indie Bands

Swedish indie rock band Great Hare formed around 2010 when four friends got together after a long hiatus from music. Naming the band after nocturnal chance encounters with wild hares, they turned a loft into a recording studio and brought drums, guitars, tape delay machines, keyboards, pink chorus pedals, an old piano and influences from the post-punk era they grew up in. They turn up at nights looking for melodies that want to be turned into songs. The good ones arrive like waves hitting a beach or echoes of something submerged under the surface.
