The Happy Happy Kid

My mother sang when I was born, but she always did, so maybe it wasn't my birth that made her sing. As a child I wasn't very much into music, I only had to play the flute like everyone else, and I didn't like it. In my youth I consumed quite a lot of bullshit music, but then, I guess it was in 1993, there was this song, this band that somehow changed my life. The band was Radiohead, the song was Creep, and for the first time I realized that music can be so much more than just sound. Back then I really started to listen to music. And eventually I wanted to make music myself. With two friends I started a band. Back then, in 2000, we called us Suicide Chicken, but we changed our name into The Weeping Face some time ago. We played and play kinda melancholic alternative rock, sometimes really loud. Since I often prefer quiet sounds, I started to make music by myself, sitting in front of the computer with a shitty microphone and without really knowing how to play an instrument. The Happy Happy Kid is the outcome of this.See also www.myspace.com/theweepingface
