The Happiness

Fabulous new band from Brighton, performed at the Borderline here in London last night.

Best songs were probably "John" (which I would definitely see as their single) and "City Council." They (ironically enough) have been compared to The Killers. I think they've got something really original going for them.

Surprisingly, (esp in this day and age) they were actually even better live than they were on their demos. They're recordings are good but nothing special. Seeing them live shows their music in much higher quality - and really does leave you with an all over "happy" vibe. Go figure.



They haven't been signed to a label, so no album to buy as of yet. Free downloads available online, and visit their website for upcoming dates in London in March and April!

These guys have serious potential, and the lead singer's voice and charisma are charming.

You heard it here first!
