Biography

Known for their seminal contributions to the Pacific Northwest's Indie Rock superstructure (see: Calvin Johnson, K Records), Calvin and Co. crafted endearingly remedial, bass-less pop when most bands were looking for checkerboard T-shirts and playing pointy guitars. Granted, Johnson's hollow, slow-to-enunciate foghorn wouldn't really complement Celine Dion's rocket-ship soprano; but Beat Happening's most appealing sound has always been the one a large middle finger makes when pointed in the critic's direction.
