Happy music

[Phototropic]

Alright, I recently got introduced to the Coral, and they're so fantastically upbeat and cheery, and they obviously enjoy what they're doing

It's made alot of stuff I listen to / write look depressing in comparison

Can someone name some other great upbeat bands that I could listen to?!

:chug:

Probably the best advice you could be given in this sort of situation. Undoubtedly the happiest group of 8 to walk this planet since the time of the dinosaurs, you can't really listen to them without feeling great about whatever you're doing, whether it be playing music, jumping around, or contemplating suicide.

so is architecture in helsinki from finland?

[Otherside]

I consider alot of Sigur Ros to be happy music, as long as you stay away from (), that is. Wouldn't consider it upbeat, however...

[Jonny Greenwood]

Theres a old/new Radiohead song that just surface called Happy Song :p

[Watchman]

Polyphonic Spree.

[I'll Take The Veil]

Of Montreal, Feist, Dismemberment Plan, Rilo Kiley, The Postal Service, Jaga Jazzist, Toritoise...

[International Steve]

Hmm, the cheeriest:
Belle and Sebastian
Rilo Kiley, most of the time,
The Mountain Goats

[el doctor]

Polyphonic Spree.
Definitely. I'll throw in Beulah, The Minders, and Tiger Trap into the mix.

[TalkingHead]

Architecture In Helsinki are actually an 8-piece from Melbourne, contrary to what their title may suggest. And live, they are really phenomenal, if they don't cheer you up, nothing will.
