About this album
The Happening Thang is a smart, easygoing country rock album that balances twang, humour and heartfelt songcraft. Released in 1989, the self-titled record sits comfortably between rock and folk traditions, with an approach that feels rooted in barroom storytelling and rural imagery rather than polish for its own sake. Its charm lies in the writing: songs such as I Don't Wanna Go To Work and Ramblin' Cowgirl suggest a band with a knack for plainspoken detail and melodic hooks. For listeners drawn to late-1980s Americana-adjacent roots music, it stands as a distinctive and quietly engaging statement.
