About Me


Formed in the late 80's with original members Winj and Matt, The Happenin went from strength to strength playing the local Rock/Metal clubs around South Wales. The Happenin' had interest from both Major and Indie record companies, and some very positive press reports about the Happenins strong live performances. The Happenin were also regulars on local radio, Red Dragon as well as some regional BBC rock shows. The Happenin seemed to have it all. However, as with all good things it ended all to suddenly with the nineties disease of PMD (Personal and musical differences)
By chance, Simes and Matt met again after 7 or 8 years. Putting old differences aside Matt invited Dave to sing for his then band "Love and Bullets" and the band became a relative success around the Cardiff and valleys club/pub scene. Blah Blah Blah, and several years later along came Jarrod, the mighty ork and tub thumper of some repute. Jarrod brought to L&B a power that was previously missing, taking the "pub" band back down the road to the roots of all the band members, METAL.
Five or so years passed and personal differences set in again. That was the end of L&B. However, it was obvious that the passion for rock and metal was still in Matt and Simes. Over a couple of pints a cunning plan was conceived. Reform The Happenin'.
In April 2007, The Happenin went into the rehearsal studio this time as a 4 piece. Simes - Vox and guitar, Matt - Bass, Jarrod - drums and original Happenin member Winj - guitar.
The music is strong melodic rock with obvious hints of many influences along with a strong sense of originality. We are currently putting the finishing touches to our live set with a couple of crowd pleasing covers thrown in here and there. If you like what you hear let your friends know who we are.
So my MySpace friends there we have it. Thats us, what about you. Get in touch. We don't bite, much.
