Natural Born Hippies is a Danish rock band formed in 1997 in Randers. The band consists of Dan Hougesen (vocals), Bo Christensen (bass), Tom Lindby (drums) and Sune Thorbjørnsen (guitar).
The band's first hit was a cover version of the old Kinks song "Lola (If You Ever…)" (1999), originally written by Ray Davies of the same band in 1970. The song became a hit especially in Denmark where it reached #10 on the Checklist as well as in Germany and Italy (#25 in Italy). The band has since released three albums. They are also known because one of their songs are featured on Cars: The Video Game as part of the game race soundtrack (Best Looking Guy In Town).
In 2018, Natural Born Hippies released the single "Mandela under the sun" as a tribute to South Africa's former president Nelson Mandela, who would have turned 100 just that year. The song was approved by Mandela's family and the Mandela Foundation in South Africa to be the official tribute song for Nelson Mandela.
