RED HARE's roots run all the way back to the Washington D.C. music scene of the '80s and '90s, where SHAWN BROWN, JASON FARRELL and DAVE EIGHT immersed themselves in the braids and tangles of that city's unique strain of hardcore. In 1987, Brown (the original [and current] singer of DAG NASTY) and guitarist Farrell founded SWIZ-a harsher take on melodic hardcore released via Dischord's sister-label Sammich and their own freshly-minted label Hellfire. Eight joined Swiz on bass in 1989 and remained until the band wrapped it up in 1990. By 1995, Farrell and Eight reconvened to immerse themselves in the angular post-hardcore stylings of BLUETIP, yet found enough juice to again tap Brown for the short-lived Swiz reboot, SWEETBELLY FREAKDOWN. Meanwhile, JOE GORELICK was living a parallel existence drumming in the band GARDEN VARIETY. A fortuitous string of circumstances led him down the Jersey turnpike straight into Bluetip's empty drum chair. Although Gorelick did not record with the band, his prowess was nonetheless noted and cataloged for future missions-first in 2002 with Farrell in RETISONIC and now with Brown, Farrell, Jason and Eight in Red Hare. Red Hare are set to release their second album Little Acts of Destruction on May 11th through a joint effort with Dischord and their own label Hellfire. Like their debut Nites of Midnite (2013) and their stop-gap 7", Lexicon Mist (2016), the album was recorded and mixed by longtime collaborator and friend J. ROBBINS. These 14 songs are a heady/hearty mix of the familiar and new that bristle with the energy of the hometown sound they helped shape. The CD version of this release includes the tracks from Red Hare's Lexicon Mist 7" single.
