HAPPY sind Tate Logan (Vocals/Rhythm Guitar), Jack Eskridge (Guitar), Caleb Rucker (Drums) und Basser Sean Bowick. Die Poppunkband gruendete sich 2016 in Columbia, South Carolina und veroeffentlicht dieses Jahr erstmals Musik via Rude Records. Mit dem Videoclip zum Song “Winona Ryder” stellt die Band unten einen neuen Song im Stream vor.
Frontmann Logan kommentiert:
“Winona Ryder is about the infatuation that some guys have with the idea of a "manic pixie dream girl" that doesn't exist. MPDG is defined as "existing solely in the fevered imaginations of sensitive writers and directors to teach broodingly soulful young men to embrace life and its infinite mysteries and adventures." The song is about having that desire for this imaginary person to save you from your own toxicity. It's putting the responsibility on a partner to fix you, when in fact it is your own responsibility to become a better person. I named the song Winona Ryder because I loved her when I was younger and put her on a pedestal. I guess you could say she was my "dream girl." But, no perfect girl, not even Winona Ryder, is going to swoop in and save you. That's up to you. That's your responsibility”
