Happy Rhodes / Ecto FAQ

Happy Live:

Happy used to play live in and around the Albany, NY area before moving to Bearsville, NY in 1993. She hadn't been able to play out live as much as she would have liked, strictly due to financial concerns. Happy and Kevin paid for everything themselves so any kind of tour outside the Woodstock area depended on their financial status.

However, now that she's signed with Samson Music, a tour is in the works. Up-to-date tour information can be found at Samson's web page, at:

http://www.samsonmusic.com/

Tour dates will always be posted to Ecto, alt.music.ecto and various other newsgroups such as rec.music.info, rec.music.gaffa and others.
