The Happy Hollows >>

“The Happy Hollows are snot-nosed indie rockers with a penchant for Sonic Youth and Oprah Winfrey. Their appeal is immediate — go to their MySpace page and check out the video for "Vietnam." Oh, the knee-high socks and robots!"

-AllMusic.com


----------------------

"Lo-fi distortion, screeching Kim Dealesque vocals, and racing rhythms"

-Nylon Magazine


----------------------

"The Happy Hollows are almost as fun conceptually as they are sonically. They've become the latest indie darlings in Silver Lake thanks to an almost pugilistic mix of stinging guitars, turbulent rhythms and shouted vocals..."

-LA Times

----------------------


"Happy Hollows' lead singer and guitarist Sarah Neghadari is a vocal gem...Throw in a dynamic rhythm section and this silly trio should give you the night of near chaos you've so desperately needed."

-Willamette Week (Portland, OR).



 


Fade in. A silver curtain. Cue the house on the hill, the kitties, the trolls, and the Vietnam flashbacks. Come on in - explore a universe where meteors and labyrinths clash at every corner store - the water's fine. Imagine a realm where hockey and religion eat the same thing for dinner. Consider for a moment, if you will, the implications of Delorians and burritos while riding on the tilt-a-whirl with Vivek Kemp and Ichabod Crane. Wear knee-socks and roll in the hay for the love of God, man! Tell me that The Happy Hollows are not just another band that will fade into Bolivia. Tell me that there is a new hope....

There is!! Led by the live-wire talent of Sarah Negahdari (vocals/guitar), and held together by the District-of-Columbia rhythm section of Charlie M. (bass) and Chris Meanie (drums), The Happy Hollows have turned Los Angeles into their own private playground. While some say L.A. is a cesspool crawling with coked up materialists who sport angular hairstylings and bop around to neo-disco dancepunk (it is), its also a creative dustbin, a surreal sprawl where artists grow on palm trees and where flowers turn into radios. In L.A., around every corner, there's a hidden marvel tucked away in a strip-mall. And its in this environment of contradictions, of highs and lows where nothing quite makes sense, that Los Hollows have thrived.

The Happy Hollows are on their own little road to nowhere. Come on and skip along, won't you? Just remember to bring your battle ax.
