Goran Bare jedan je od najistaknutijih hrvatskih rock glazbenika, poznat po svom autentičnom izrazu i karizmatičnim nastupima. Svoju glazbenu karijeru započeo je u ranim 1980-ima, a 1984. godine osnovao je kultni bend Majke, koji je ubrzo stekao status jednog od najvažnijih rock sastava na domaćoj sceni. Njihov prvi studijski album Razum i bezumlje (1990.) proglašen je rock albumom godine, a pjesme poput “Budi ponosan” i “Mene ne zanima” postale su generacijski himne.
Tijekom 1990-ih Bare je prolazio kroz osobne i profesionalne izazove, uključujući razlaz originalne postave Majki i borbu s ovisnostima. Unatoč tome, nastavio je stvarati glazbu, a 2000. godine započeo je samostalnu karijeru s pratećim bendom Plaćenici. Njegov solo album Izgubljen i nađen (2001.) osvojio je Porina za rock album godine, a pjesma “Put ka sreći” postala je prepoznatljiv hit. Nakon nekoliko godina pauze, Majke su se ponovno okupile 2008. godine, objavivši live album Unplugged i nastavile s uspješnim nastupima diljem Hrvatske.
Album Teške boje (2011.) donio je Majkama šest Porina, uključujući nagrade za najbolji rock album, pjesmu godine i hit godine. Njihov posljednji studijski album Nuspojave (2018.) također je osvojio Porina za rock album godine, potvrđujući status Gorana Bareta kao jednog od najutjecajnijih glazbenika u regiji. Njegova glazba, prožeta osobnim iskustvima i emotivnim tekstovima, ostaje snažan glas autentičnog rock izraza.

Goran Bare is one of the most acknowledged rock musicians in Croatia, well-known for his authentic expression and charismatic performance. His music career began in the early 1980s and in 1984 he formed the band Majke (“Mothers”), which soon gained cult status and became one of the most important rock bands in Croatia. Their first studio album, Razum i bezumlje (1990), was named rock album of the year, and songs from this album (“Budi ponosan” and “Mene ne zanima”, for example) became generational anthems.
The 1990s were a period of personal and professional struggles for Bare, as the original lineup of Majke broke up, while Bare was fighting addictions. Nevertheless, he continued making music, and in 2000 started a solo career, accompanied by the band Plaćenici (“Mercenaries”). His solo album that followed – Izgubljen i nađen (2001) – won the Porin award for rock album of the year, while the song “Put ka sreći” won the charts. After a hiatus of several years, Majke reunited in 2008, released a new album (Unplugged), and held a national tour.
Album Teške boje (2011) earned them six Porin awards, including those for the best rock album, song of the year, and hit of the year. The last studio album they released in 2018 was Nuspojave and it also won Porin for the rock album, reaffirming Goran Bare’s status of one of the most influential musicians in the region. His music, deeply rooted in personal experience, with its strongly emotional lyrics, remains a powerful voice of the authentic rock sound.
