Happy Pop
It all started off with Jones (Guitar) and Pangky (Vocal) meeting each other in a campus event where they felt like they had a similarity in music. Then they agreed to make a band that went along the lines of “Power Pop and New Wave.” Initially the two of them made a demo sample that was recorded simply in acoustic versions. As the time went by, they felt like they needed other band members to fill the empty spots in their band. So then Pangky and Jones met with their old friends Sigit (Drums) and Alfi (Bass) who also seemed to have a similarity in music. With the new formation, they all agreed to take this band to the next level. Finally they decided to use “HappyPop” as their band name which describes the characteristics of each band member. The name “HappyPop” personally was taken because it described the cheerful and high spirit each and every one of them had; and was the typical characteristics of their songs which was: simple, cheerful, up-beat and nuances of happiness which is why their genre is Power Pop.
