"Twee as Fuck and Friday night's line up was tres bon. With The Mare, Strange Idols and Bricolage on the bill HSAH couldn't have been happier.
So with our cardigan in check and our dancing shoes pulling all the moves the buffalo bar started to fill up with ident a kit indie chicks and guys. The Mare had travelled all the way from Sweden for this gig and like almost all Swedish bands that HSAH had come across in her time they were indie pop-tastic. Their female singer even supported a massive bee hive her style and with her high pitched, wobbly vocals she took centre stage.

"The Mare (www.myspace.com/themarethemare) have came all the way from Stockholm just to play Twee As Fuck. They were a stand out band for me at Emmaboda two years ago and they stand out again tonight. There’s something sweetly genuine about their music and the cute, slightly affected way they phrase their English over Belle and Sebastian chord changes and trumpet that makes me love them.

Discography:
THE MARE
Last Trumpet Didn't See You Us Too
"I've been pimping The Mare for a good two years or so. So when I come across some news about the band I generally post it. When it's a new song it's a cause for celebration. So today we celebrate. Cloudberry Records is about to release a 3 track 3" cd ep by the band, 1/3 of which is available now online.
"Didn't See You Coming" has all the elements of a Swedish lofi indie pop hit. It's got the jangliest guitars this side of Manchester, certifiable twee vocals and an innocence that will play well with indie pop fans from here to Jakarta and from the Philippines to Olympia, Wa.

THE MARE "HAPPINESS"
Where were you Happiness Better off Jim Blues, Mary Lame and Me
THE MARE "SAD AFFAIR/SAD/GLAD"
Sad Affair
Sad
Glad
"The Mare’s ‘Sad’ and ‘Sad Affair’ ride melodic trails like ghost riders in the sky, and evoke a certain dusty atmosphere within the magic confines of Pop that’s well, just ace. Jennie Sundstrom’s version sees the track, all evocative guitars and spectral percussion, glow with feminine fragility and shimmer, while Charley Rivel gives it a crazy kind of wonder, like Jack White singing off Darren Hayman’s back in a bubble-strewn wild-west. And that, I think you’ll agree, is really something." - Neil Jones http://www.miwsig.co.uk
THE MARE "I DON'T WANT TO DIE"
VINYL 7" EP RUS002 2005
I don't want to die
Luna
Suburb
Goodbye Sand
"The Mare have this amazing little song called "I Don't Want To Die" that pretty much sums up life, the universe and everything in about 3 minutes." --swedesplease.blogspot.com
