One Happy Island is an indiepop band from Boston with sloppy DIY tendencies. Chief exports include handclaps, ukulele strings, harmonicas, bittersweetly jangley ballads, furiously unfocused kazoo solos, and unashamed lo-fi recordings. It is the intention of Shannon, Rebecca, Clint, and Brad to take their songcraft and melodies to new levels of fun, fun, and fun.
Maaaaaaan, I'm super-excited about seeing you guys in brum & @ Indietracks, but I just foind out yr playing with Milky Wimspahke in Newcastle. Hot Damn, I wish I had a transporter!
Actually, KVRX isn't affiliated with KOOP other than sharing the frequency. So, feel free to send anything...info is on my profile. I have one song of yours that I'm planning to play on What's A Girl to Do THIS Monday from a SXSW Compilation, I think. Do you have Austin ties?
