Originating from Red Deer Alberta, Harehound is the rebrand of the Alt rock trio previously performing under the name “Rebecca Raabis.” The band consists of members Rebecca Raabis (lead vocals, bass) Colin Langstraat (drums, backing vocals), and Craig Gomez (guitar) – who are no strangers to the music scene.
Rebecca has been writing and performing for over 10 years and has made some major milestones, such as having songs on Netflix (Ben’s at Home), opening for Marianas Trench, and having a song appear on Toronto’s TV series Rookie Blue. She has played shows across mid and western Canada including Toronto’s “Honey Jam” and Canadian Music Week.
Harehound’s debut single, “Claws,” sets the standard for the synth rock powerhouse sound that the band strives for. Lyrically, “Claws” addresses the idea of reaching for a seemingly possible goal and not letting anything get in your way – in this case, the personification about the roadblocks in creating music.
Harehound’s debut EP is set to be released in the summer of 2023. Their mix of alt pop and punk rock influences makes for a hard hitting, catchy sonic attack that is sure to make you proudly dance your night away.
