The Fat Angel Sings

Ive been struck by the trio Happyness write  witty and intelligent smart songs and with their ferocious guitars attacks of bass and lead guitars with definite American influences from bands like Pavement  Benji Compston and Jonny Allan shared vocal, guitar and bass duties with off the cuff observations about dead swans and pastoral England  while drummer Ash Cooper might easily make the shortlist as the most animated drummer at CMJ music fest in New York City. Songs like “Anything I Do Is All Right” or “It’s On You,” with more hushed, lo-fi fuzzed out guitar like the eight-minute reverie of “Weird Little Birthday Girl,” that makes Happyness so utterly distinctive. they have been one of the highlights of my festival Summer please check out the mini album “Weird Little Birthday” one of the best releases of the year.
