HAPPIER THAN YOU was four friends with different taste in music blending together. Recorded more than 500 songs from 1996 to 2006, from plain Rock, to Pop songs, Ballads, Instrumentals, Acoustic, Fully-Orchestrated pieces and styles that don't even fit into any categories. The main ideas was to EXPERIMENT, LEARN have HAVE FUN basically, while getting a product of quality.
Yes, a LOT of those songs were more "commercial" (like 'Getting Directions') and that's what got us our Record deals/Publishing deals, while never truly falling into the right hands.
After too much problems (friendship, legal, musically), HTY decided to call it quits, leaving an astouding amount of work behind them.
Thought we'd share it for a bit...
