Happy Hollows' "High Wire" Featured in Samsung Mobile Commercial

Many people have been writing us asking if, indeed, that is the Happy Hollows on your friendly neighborhood T.V. set? The answer is "yes"! That is us playing our song "High Wire" in a Samsung Mobile phone commercial! You can listen to the song at the links below:

Happy Hollows on MySpace

Happy Hollows on Facebook

And you can buy the song and our album at ITunes, Amazon.com, or any other online music store.



Also, the band has never played in Cleveland before but we have, in fact, played in New York...but we hope to play in Cleveland someday.

More details will be made available as they emerge.

Over and out.

Happy Hollows' Residency Poster Contest!

At the last show we announced that we will be awarding a prize to the best drawn poster created by a fan for our Spaceland Residency!

The "strict" rules of the contest are as follows:

1) Poster must be drawn using the crayons provided at the next two shows - Nov. 16 and Nov. 23 - or the show that just happened on Nov. 9. Otherwise, you can just draw one at home. But no faxing or e-mailing it in. Poster must be delivered in person (not by proxy) to a member of the Happy Hollows, or one of their duly designated representatives, at Spaceland between the hours of 9PM - 2AM.

2) Limit one poster per week per person. If you are a twin, you can submit two per person. Triplets can submit three per person and so on and so forth.*

We have not decided on a prize yet but be assured it will be something special! The winner will be announced at the final night of our residency. If the winner is not present, we will award the prize to the first runner up etc. etc.

Sarah announced the contest at our last show and here is what people have come up with so far:




























Here they are on the wall of Spaceland:



Here are some people working hard on posters:



May the best poster triumph!

Buy Spells Early at Bandcamp

Our new album, Spells, comes out on all the major digital distribution sites like ITunes, Amazon, and Emusic on October 6. However if you want to get a digital copy early, you can do so already over at a great site called Bandcamp.



If you are going to buy the album digitally, I highly suggest using Bandcamp. For one thing, you can download "lossless" versions of the songs. That means that they are just as good as CD quality.

In addition, for us as a band what is really great about Bandcamp is that they take hardly any money from artists!! If you buy an album on Itunes, a significant portion is taken away from us by various "middlemen." Bandcamp on the other hand takes only about forty cents per album! Which is really quite amazing.
