About Me

The band was initially formed on the basis of two now non-existent bands - Pitter Pen and Z-Kill en Raggazzi Calvi - in 2001. The active phase of the bandâ€™s existence started in the late 2003 - early 2004. In the period of 2004-2006, Tears of Happiness played a dozen shows in the city clubs. The band is the resident of the TIR club (Pskov). The bandâ€™s debut album - Mental Hygiene - published independently in December 2005, was followed by the promo â€˜The Gift Horse and the Mouthâ€™ distributed for free during their last solo show in the TIR club. In 2007, the bandâ€™s vocalist Denis Cooguy appeared as a guest singer for the Pskov-based VIB in their first live gig.

membership swings
