"You’ll hear a straightforward rocker that opens with a sonic and vocal
Dinosaur Jr drive but turns quickly into a more melancholic and poppy
modus when the chorus comes up, but still rolling as glowy guitars take
over and provide an electrical finale. Nordic Europe delivers again."

Archipelago Of Dreams

https://open.spotify.com/track/7qnkOsu7XfdpV4Tuq7VW5o?si=522516175e9641f9

"For a while, the experienced Gothenburg‘s 4-piece had the nice habit to insert in the Soundcloud chat their latest songs forged in solid and bubbling alternative indie rock, amidst loud, tightly punching guitar riffs, equally edgelike and a melodic, pounding solid rhythm section, heady catchy chorus and emotional vocalizations with a subtle dreamlike quality. “Don’t Stop” awakens distant memories that surge forward through punchy basslines and chugging cowbell drum beats, charged by electric shreds of fearful 6-string frictions, whilst high-strung husky vocal angst spreads airy and anxious into the nostalgic sway of groovy lonely moods".

Don't Stop

"It's damn near impossible not to like "Rock n Roll Dreams". Don't Need No Melody

"Seriously terrific track from Sweden's Great Hare". Viva Indie Rock

"...the Scandi-rock perfection that Great Hare this time trend in. And without doubt, it’s such stuff as dreams are made on". Dots And Dashes

"...the lyrics here spell out their goal: "I was just another teen, with a head full of rock n roll dreams". Well they've followed their dreams and are now in a modern rock n roll band, and despite sticking to convention, one that knows how to knock out a tune too." The Sound of Confusion

"The Swedish have once again surpassed themselves and brought us some great indie rock!" believe in the music baron

"Les suédois de Great Hare propose le très bon single 'Rock n Roll Dreams'" Dans le mur ... du Son!

"This track is loud and guitar driven, reminiscent of Delta Spirit’s upbeat moments and jangly lead guitar that would feel right at home alongside Captured Tracks bands like Wild Nothing and Diiv. The vocals have the snarl of The Strokes’ Julian Casablancas and put a bit of attitude back into a genre that is overflowing with nice-guy soft tenor vocalists that would more easily lull you to sleep than cause you to trash a dressing room." Creator Collective

Rock n Roll Dreams

Another Lad Insane

Gone Forever

Death Is Cheap

The song is based on a late night jam in the studio many years ago. We never played it again and forgot all about it. Found it by accident in the computer and loved the energy. Wrote a simple lyrics and finished it all really quickly to keep the spontaneous vibe.

”Holy Moses. Great Hare detonate their electric generator for this mind-bending garage punk torpedo. Faster than a Formula 1 race car. No brakes, no breaks, always
full speed ahead. A breathtaking hit-and-run bullet.

Manic missile”

What Went Wrong?

"This Swedish 4-piece does again what they do best. Writing amplified guitar pop tunes that stick instantly, jingle jangle chants with a kind of nostalgic Dinosaur JR feel and ear-pleasing melodies that turn around your head and around your heart for a while"

Fresh Air

"From the stimulating intro on you’ll tap your feet, without even noticing it. This is the wake-up-call I want to hear when I can’t get out of my bed in the morning. You simply can’t resist this shot of adrenaline. This is what elevating pop is all about. Vitalizing, energizing, and galvanizing. In a normal world, this should be a global hit. Oh yeah, I feel quite euphoric and, trust me, you’ll have your heart beat as fast as mine after just one spin. Hopefully, we can all come out of the lockdown shadows pretty soon."

Out of the Shadows

"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".

"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.
